Cyber-enabled theft of trade secrets by state actors in China has emerged as a major threat to our economic and, thus, national security.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We face cyber threats from state-sponsored hackers, hackers for hire, global cyber syndicates, and terrorists. They seek our state secrets, our trade secrets, our technology, and our ideas - things of incredible value to all of us. They seek to strike our critical infrastructure and to harm our economy.
Because there are little to no consequences for conducting cyberattacks, criminals and nation-states are becoming bolder in their threats and behavior. Russia, China, North Korea and Iran are increasingly hacking into U.S. companies and government networks for espionage purposes or financial gain.
Every single day, agents of certain foreign governments are relentlessly and methodically trying to hack into our corporations' computer networks and steal blueprints for next-generation equipment and products from some of America's largest exporters.
China and Russia are regarded as the most formidable cyber threats.
I believe China is a major trade violator. The Chinese break all the rules. They counterfeit our goods, steal our international property rights, and hack the computers of our industries and government. Something must be done about it.
Providing classified information to a foreign agent of the People's Republic of China is a real and serious threat to our national security.
There are two kinds of big companies in the United States. There are those who've been hacked by the Chinese, and those who don't know they've been hacked by the Chinese.
The fact of the matter is that the United States faces real threats from criminals, terrorists, spies, and malicious cyber actors.
In cyberspace, it is becoming increasingly difficult to uphold security for one's own country by sacrificing that of others.
There are those who've been hacked by the Chinese and those who don't know they've been hacked by the Chinese.
