The U.S. Department of Justice announced charges against 4 Chinese military hackers who were allegedly behind the Equifax data breach that exposed the personal and financial data of nearly 150 million Americans. The DoJ officials labeled the state-sponsored hacking campaign as the largest hacking case ever uncovered of this type. The four suspects are still at large, residing in China and have been added to the FBI’s Most Wanted Cyber list. In 2014, similar charges were announced against five Chinese military officials for hacking and cyber espionage against several American companies.
