China slams the US for sanctioning a Beijing-based cybersecurity company

CHINA slammed the US Treasury yesterday for sanctioning a Beijing-based cybersecurity company that has been accused of involvement in multiple hacking incidents targeting critical US infrastructure.

This coincided with Beijing’s cyber security agency complaining that Chinese networks had been subject to attacks.

Asked about the sanctions against Beijing-based Integrity Technology Group, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said that the country has cracked down on cyber attacks and that Washington was using the issue to “defame and smear China.”
