Suspected foreign hackers have targeted sensitive data at multiple US defense contractors, a security company tells CNN

With the help of the National Security Agency, cybersecurity researchers are exposing an ongoing effort by these unidentified hackers to steal key data from US defense contractors and other sensitive targets.It's the type of cyber espionage that security agencies in both the Biden and Trump administrations have aggressively sought to expose before it does too much damage.

declined to comment on the identity of the hackers.With their trove of national security-related secrets, US defense contractors are a recurring target for foreign hackers.Cybersecurity firm Mandiant earlier this year revealed that China-linked hackers had been exploiting a different software vulnerability to breach defense, financial and public sector organizations in the US and Europe.

and the FBI warned the public in September that hackers were exploiting the software flaw and urged organizations to update their systems. Days later, the hackers tracked by Palo Alto Networks scanned 370 computer servers running the software in the US alone, and then began to exploit the software.Olson encouraged organizations that use the Zoho software to update their systems and search for signs of a breach.

used a nascent public-private defensive program to"understand, amplify, and drive action in response to the activity identified" in the Palo Alto Networks report, said Executive Assistant Director for Cybersecurity Eric Goldstein.The disclosure of the hacking campaign shows how the NSA is"delivering real-time impact to our partners and the defense of the nation," Morgan Adamski, director of the agency's Cybersecurity Collaboration Center, said in a statement to CNN.

Seriously, how is 'Hacking' of big industry, military or other government systems still a thing? Seems like a good way for a 'lettered', agency to get money and information at little to no cost. Sure seems suspicious. Always Russian in origin and we always pay. SO CONVENIENT.

Of course how else China’s space and mission programs are on a fast track .

The all US political leadership has be concern about those attacks Please do something...!

CNN Government will need to sideline billions of dollars from education to defence to make sure this doesn’t happen again… too soon.
