US says Chinese hackers broke into Justice Department, NASA, Federal Reserve, Senate and more
- The U.S. Justice Department says it disrupted a Chinese-linked hacking campaign that had breached high-profile agencies like the DOJ, NASA, the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Senate.
- Prosecutors seized domains for two tools called "QScan" and "QTRouter," which they say were run by a Nanjing firm tied to China's intelligence and military.
- The intrusions reportedly date back to at least 2018 and also hit Energy, HHS, NIH and companies in the U.S. and South Korea; Beijing did not comment.
