China is a lead cyberattacker of US military computers, Pentagon reports: CSM

On 5/18, Anna Mulrine reported for the Christian Science Monitor on a new DoD report on China.  According to the CSM, that DoD report stated that China is behind "many of the cyberattacks on US military computer systems . . . ."  The report explained that China is looking to acquire better offensive cyber weapons while still improving their network defenses.

I don't think it's really any secret that China is behind most of the cyberattcks on DoD systems.  I do think it's significant that the DoD released a report publicly accusing China of cyberattacks.

You can find that report here.
