Attackers out of India reportedly hacked the emails of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission. The hackers posted on Pastebin a document that allegedly comes from Indian military intelligence and includes plans to employ backdoor access provided by mobile phone makers. It remains unclear whether the hackers might have been spying on the commission for India’s own benefit or on behalf of China. The Commission recommended that Congress ask the Oval Office to issue regular reports on these types of targeted attacks against federal agencies. In its 2010 report, the Commission said that the Chinese government, its Communist Party, and Chinese individuals and organizations were hacking into American networks.”]
