Hackers linked to the Chinese government hacked into the UK Ministry of Defense system – Sky News <\/a>citing its own sources<\/p>\n\n

On Tuesday, members of the British Parliament will be informed about a massive leak of data from the Ministry of Defense concerning military personnel.<\/p>\n\n

As a result of the hacking of the British military payroll system, their names and bank details were disclosed.<\/p>\n\n

The government did not name the country that did this, but the publication claims that it is China.<\/p>\n\n

The Chinese state is accused of several attempts to hack into the Defense Ministry.<\/p>\n\n

The agency said that all salaries will be paid and that the staff should not worry about their safety. Tomorrow they will be provided with the necessary advice and support <\/p>\n\n

In addition, the hackers disabled the contractor’s system, which was not connected to the main computer systems of the Ministry of Defense.<\/p>\n\n

According to the newspaper, the Ministry of Defense has been working intensively over the past 72 hours to understand the extent of the hack.<\/p>\n\n

The incident may raise questions about whether other countries with difficult relations with China will be willing to share confidential intelligence with the UK.<\/p>\n\n

“China is probably looking at financially vulnerable people to coerce them in exchange for cash,” said Tobias Ellwood, a Conservative member of the British Parliament.<\/p>\n\n

According to the BBC, today the British Defense Secretary will make a statement and outline a “multi-stage plan” that will include measures to protect affected servicemen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
