Technology companies in the United States faced an increasing wave of cyber espionage attempts linked to China over the past year, with artificial intelligence assets emerging as a primary target, according to a new threat assessment.
The report found that China-linked actors were responsible for more than 58% of state-sponsored targeted cyber intrusions against technology organizations during the 12 months ended March 31. They were largely aimed at obtaining AI-related intellectual property, research, and capabilities that have become central to the global race for advanced computing and machine learning technologies.
