Why Chinese hackers have unleashed cyberattacks on 'friend Russia' since Ukraine conflict, what 'war secrets' are behind these attacks
AI Image Cyber analysts have reportedly discovered a strange cyberwarfare trend. According to a report by New York Times, quoting security researchers, since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, groups linked to the Chinese government have repeatedly hacked Russian companies and government agencies in an apparent search for military secrets. There has been increase in Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Chinese government-linked hackers have repeatedly targeted Russian companies and government agencies, seeking military secrets, according to the New York Times report. The cyberattacks, which intensified in May 2022, have persisted despite public declarations of a 'no-limits' partnership between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Chinese hacking groups 'targetting' Russian businesses The report claims that a Chinese hacking group, Sanyo, impersonated a Russian engineering firm's email addresses in 2023 to steal data on nuclear submarines, as uncovered by Taiwan-based cybersecurity firm TeamT5, which linked the attack to Beijing. 'China likely seeks to gather intelligence on Russia's activities, including on its military operation in Ukraine, defense developments and other geopolitical maneuvers,' TeamT5 researcher Che Chang told the Times. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo A classified Russian FSB document, obtained by The New York Times, reveals Moscow's concerns about China's pursuit of Russian defense technology and battlefield insights, labeling China an 'enemy.' This contrasts with the public Sino-Russian alliance, as Russia relies on China for oil markets and war-critical technology. The document highlights China's interest in drone warfare and software, noting that 'the war in Ukraine fundamentally shifted intelligence priorities for both countries,' according to Itay Cohen of Palo Alto Networks, as quoted by the Times. What techniques Chinese hackers are said to be using against Russia The New York Times also reports that Chinese hackers targeted Rostec, Russia's state-owned defense conglomerate, for satellite communications and radar data, using malicious Microsoft Word files to infiltrate aviation and state entities. Groups like Mustang Panda, suspected of ties to China's Ministry of State Security, have hit Russian military and border units, the Times notes, citing Rafe Pilling of Sophos. Pilling told the Times, 'The targeting we've observed tends to be political and military intelligence gathering.' Proprietary malware like Deed RAT, used by Chinese state-sponsored hackers, has been deployed against Russian aerospace and defense sectors, the report said, citing Positive Technologies. Despite 2009 and 2015 agreements barring mutual cyberattacks, the Times notes that experts view these as symbolic, with hacking spiking post-Ukraine invasion. 'The activity — we saw it immediately in the months following Russia's full-scale invasion,' Cohen told the Times, highlighting the tension beneath the public narrative of Sino-Russian unity.

SGCCI submit demands related to QCO
Surat: In a meeting with senior officials of the textile ministry in New Delhi, various demands related to the quality control order (QCO) were discussed by officials of the Southern Gujarat Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SGCCI). The meeting was organised by the ministry, and various stakeholders were invited to discuss issues. The meeting was chaired by the commissioner of textile, M Beena. Representatives from textile machinery manufacturers and user industries from across India, the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI), SGCCI, and others were present at the meeting. SGCCI was represented by vice president Ashok Jirawala, former presidents Vijay Mewawala and Ashish Gujarati, who submitted recommendations. It was suggested to the ministry that Europe, China, and Japan are the global leaders in textile machinery. To develop the textile machinery industry in India, it is necessary to study two factories each from Europe and China, and one from Japan. The study should cover how these manufacturers determine parameters for textile machinery design, the standard operating procedures they follow for manufacturing, the kind of facilities and locations they have for making machine components, if they have intellectual property protection for their sub-assemblies and components, and whether they have in-house laboratories to test machine performance parameters. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Neues Produkt hilft tausenden Deutschen bei Gelenkschmerzen Medizinmonitor Jetzt lesen Undo SGCCI suggested forming a task force to conduct this study, which should include members from the user industry as well. Additionally, to reduce the import of textile machinery, the SGCCI submitted suggestions that 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) approval should be given to top-level global original equipment manufacturers to start manufacturing in India. The central govt should formally invite them. SGCCI further suggested a production-linked incentive scheme should be introduced specifically for textile machinery manufacturing. Research and development facilities of large Indian companies should be leveraged to design world-class textile machinery in India. Manufacturing should take place through joint ventures with Surat's textile manufacturers. GST on textile machinery should not exceed 12%. Regarding impact assessment, the SGCCI stated that any funds utilised for the development of textile machinery in India should be evaluated by comparing the value of machinery developed domestically and the subsequent reduction in imports against the funds spent.
