Beijing has responded to accusations linking it to a cyber breach at the US Treasury Department, labeling the claims as “groundless”.
The breach reportedly occurred through a third-party service, allowing hackers to gain remote access to the system and certain unclassified documents.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry emphasized its opposition to hacking and condemned the dissemination of unverified information for political agendas.
The Treasury has taken the compromised service offline and confirmed there is no ongoing access to its systems.
China has repeatedly dismissed allegations of state-sponsored hacking, despite similar accusations from various countries, particularly the United States.
