Countering Chinese State-Sponsored Actors Compromise of Networks Worldwide to Feed Global Espionage System

A joint cybersecurity advisory reveals how Chinese state-sponsored actors have been compromising networks worldwide, including telecom, transportation, and military infrastructure. These advanced persistent threat (APT) groups exploit known vulnerabilities, modify routers, and establish covert tunnels to maintain long-term access. Their goal is large-scale espionage, enabling the tracking of communications, movement, and sensitive data. The advisory urges defenders to apply mitigations, strengthen logging and routing practices, and remain vigilant against persistent threats.
