Blueprints of Australia’s top spy agency headquarters stolen by Chinese hackers

Chinese hackers have stolen $630 million building blueprints outlining the layout of Australia’s top spy agency’s new headquarters. The blueprints included floor plans, communications cabling, server locations and security systems. The cyber attack is one of the reasons completion of the new building has been delayed. Companies including BlueScope Steel and Adelaide-based Codan, which makes radios for military and intelligence agencies, are also said to have been targeted by the Chinese. A separate attack on the Defence Department involved an employee sending a highly classified document from his desk computer to his home.
