Worlwide Crackdown on Hackers

Uploaded on 2014-06-12 in NEWS-Cybersecurity News, GOVERNMENT-Law Enforcement, TECHNOLOGY--Hackers

Two major events targeting Hackers show growing international concern across governments over the growing impact and extent of Cybercrime.

Operation Blackshades, an internationally coordinated police offensive directed by Europol taking in 16 countries, has resulted in over 100 arrests of creators, sellers and users of malware.

In a parallel development, US authorities have brought charges against named officers of a special unit of the Chinese Army in a multiple indictment accusing them of cybercrime against major US corporations and sensitive infrastructure in a systematic attempt to gain advantage by industrial espionage.

Yet, US and EU governments are still spying on each other. In the wake of revelations about the US NSA spying on friendly governments, the German government is reported to be introducing a policy which will deny contracts to companies that cannot demonstrate their data is beyond the reach of foreign access. The restriction is being introduced to prevent the flow of data worth protecting to foreign security authorities.
