Chinese Cyberattacks Cause Damage, Embarrassment

A Reuters newswire article by Mark Trevelyan, via InformationWeek, reports that:

China has rejected both the U.S. and German allegations, complaining of "wild accusations" which were "totally groundless and also reflect a Cold War mentality".

Sandra Bell, security analyst at the Royal United Services Institute in London, said the emergence of the two reports in consecutive weeks appeared to signal that Western governments were running out of patience with the alleged Chinese activity.

"It does seem the international community appears to be saying: 'We know who's doing this and we want it to stop,'" she said.
