Security Firm InteliSecure CEO Rob Eggebrecht says U.S. companies are being targeted by opportunistic attackers and used to exfiltrate data.

The attacks trace back to individuals associated with the Chinese government, he says. Some organizations breached in the past year have employed a number of Chinese expatriates living in the United States or Europe.”]
