Suspected Chinese malware has been identified in several US military
systems.

Unlike other surveillance malware from China, this malware seems intended
to disrupt operations.

The malware could also have the ability to disrupt normal civilian life
and businesses.

US officials found suspected Chinese malware across several military
systems — and unlike previous attacks, experts say the intent is more
likely to disrupt rather than to surveil, The New York Times reports.

The attacks first came into the public eye in May after Microsoft
identified malicious code in telecommunications software in Guam, where
the US houses the Andersen Air Force Base.

US officials told the Times that investigations into Chinese malware had
been underway for several months and that the malicious code had
infiltrated US military systems across the country and abroad. Previous
cyberattacks typically aimed to surveil US operations, experts told the
Times.

"China is steadfast and determined to penetrate our governments, our
companies, our critical infrastructure," the deputy director of the
National Security Agency, George Barnes, said at the Intelligence and
National Security Summit earlier this month.

Now, experts say this new wave of malicious code has the ability to
disrupt US military and civilian operations.

Last month, Rob Joyce, the director of cybersecurity at the NSA, called
the nature of this malware "really disturbing." The Times reported that it
could allow China to cut off power, water, and communications to military
bases, and it could also affect personal homes and businesses across the
country.

The experts who spoke with the Times also said it was not clear whether
the Chinese government knew about the malware or how well the software
would actually work.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken raised the issue of Chinese hacking
while meeting with Chinese diplomats earlier in July, CNN reported.

"We have consistently made clear that any action that targets US
government, US companies, American citizens, is a deep concern to us and
that we will take appropriate action to hold those responsible accountable
and the secretary made that clear again," a senior State Department
official told CNN.

In response to questions posed by the Times to the White House about the
issue, the National Security Council's spokesman, Adam Hodge, said: "The
Biden administration is working relentlessly to defend the United States
from any disruptions to our critical infrastructure, including by
coordinating interagency efforts to protect water systems, pipelines, rail
and aviation systems, among others."

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment from
Insider.

And this is just the beginning. Just wait until malware or exploits are discovered embedded in
chips. Why do you think there was the fuss over Huawei working with US companies?

We sold our soul to the CCP the minute we allowed them to manufacture our technology products. And
It was all due to greed.

At this point things are going to start to decay as China attacks the USA from all sides including
from within. And with a weak, insane POTUS such as Biden, who is owned by the CCP, we don't stand a
chance.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
