China Cyber Attacks and Technology Theft

Gordon Basichis‘ roman a clef, The Guys Who Spied for China (Minstrel’s Alley) lays out the origins of Chinese Espionage here in the United States, beginning in the 1980s.   It provides great context for what we are seeing today with the Chinese Cyber Attacks on US business and government.    A hot topic when Basichis lived and wrote the book, it is increasingly causing alarm at the highest levels of government and industry.  See today’s article, US READY TO STRIKE BACK AGAINST CHINA CYBERATTACKS by Lolita Baldor:
