Nuevo episodio de tensión entre China y los EEUU. Según informa Reuters, un grupo de piratas informáticos que trabajaban para el Ministerio de Seguridad del Estado chino accedieron ilegalmente hasta en ochos grandes proveedores de servicios de tecnología para robar secretos comerciales, obtener información confidencial y posteriormente atacar a sus respectivos clientes.
A U.S. indictment in December outlined an elaborate operation to steal Western intellectual property in order to advance China’s economic interests but stopped short of naming victim companies. A Reuters report at the time identified two: Hewlett Packard Enterprise and IBM.
HPE said it worked “diligently for our customers to mitigate this attack and protect their information.” DXC said it had “robust security measures in place” to protect itself and clients, neither of which have “experienced a material impact” due to Cloud Hopper.
NTT Data, Dimension Data, Tata Consultancy Services, Fujitsu and IBM declined to comment. IBM has previously said it has no evidence sensitive corporate data was compromised by the attacks.

Según Reuters .... o según mi abuela, que en estos temas tiene las mismas aptitudes, solo que mi abuela hace mejor las "cocretas"
Reuters habla de una acusación de EEUU .... donde no se menciona a nadie. Y luego reuters dice que son HP e IBM ... porque ellos lo dicen.
HP y DXC dicen que "no ha pasado nada" y los demás o no contestan, o no saben de que hablan.
Joder, Reuter funciona como El Confidencial.
