Ministry of State Security: This "special" network technology service is suspected of violating the law


At present, cyberspace has become an important channel for foreign espionage and intelligence agencies to infiltrate and steal secrets from China. Cyber espionage activities are becoming more active, technical attacks are precise and fierce, and secret theft methods are emerging in an unceasing manner, posing a serious threat to China's national security.

With the rapid popularization and deepening of the application of network technology in China, the network technology service industry has become a new target for foreign spy and intelligence agencies to penetrate and steal secrets, evade our network security supervision and protection system, and implement network espionage.

Xiao Wang is an engineer engaged in network technology services, at the beginning of this year, a foreign software developer took the initiative to contact Xiao Wang, inviting Xiao Wang to batch configure the "digital signature certificate" and "anti-virus software test" for its dozens of software, in order to "successfully pass" my network security certification test, and promised to pay high remuneration.

As the relationship deepened, the software developer further asked Wang to use designated software, encrypted links to contact him, and inconsistent statements and abnormal behavior.

Xiao Wang realized that this foreign software developer is by no means an ordinary commercial institution, and if we provide "technical services" for it, the software with hidden security risks will bypass our network security supervision and enter the Chinese application market.

However, driven by the temptation of economic interests, Xiao Wang knew the harm but took the chance and established a cooperative relationship with the foreign software developer to provide "technical services" for dozens of its software.

"The net of God is slow but sure." After investigation, the foreign software developer who established a "cooperative relationship" with Xiao Wang was a foreign spy intelligence agency.

Those software provided by Xiao Wang "technical services" are bundled with special Trojan virus programs, once clicked to run, will invade, control computers, servers and other network equipment, and steal documents, information and data.

The spy intelligence agency used these "poison-carrying" software to carry out cyber attacks on dozens of national defense and military units and high-tech enterprises.

After discovering and identifying the situation, the state security organ promptly notified the relevant units, carried out the disposal work according to law, and avoided major harm and losses. Xiao Wang also paid the price for his "lucky heart" and was given administrative punishment by the state security organs according to law.
