WeChat official account "Embassy of the People's Republic of China in Canada" reported on December 6, the Embassy spokesperson in Canada responded to journalists' questions regarding Canada's hype about so-called "Chinese cyber attacks".
Reporter asked: Recently, the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security, together with the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the National Security Agency, jointly released an analysis report stating that Chinese government-backed cyber threat actors used the Brickstorm malware to infiltrate government service agencies, facilities, and information technology industry organizations. What is China's comment on this?
Spokesperson of the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in Canada: It is well known that the United States is truly the "Hacker Empire", the master of cyber attacks and the greatest threat to global cyber security. The so-called analysis report ignores the United States' reckless cyber attacks, but instead falsely accuses and defames China, which is nothing more than a thief crying out "Catch the thief" and has ulterior motives. China firmly opposes this.
China is one of the main victims of cyber attacks. It has always resolutely opposed and legally cracked down on all forms of cyber attack, and is committed to safeguarding cyber security. China urges Canada to immediately stop following the U.S. and stop politicizing and stigmatizing the issue of cyber security, and stop using the issue of cyber security to defame China.
