【禁闻】美公司:中共部队涉嫌网络攻击

【新唐人2013年02月21日讯】美国一家计算机安全公司最近公布了一份调查报告。报告揭示,近年来美国遭受来自中国大陆的网络黑客袭击越发严重,而位于上海浦东的一支中共秘密部队,很可能是这一系列袭击案的幕后黑手。虽然中共军方对这一指证拒不承认,但外界评论认为,中共当局一直热衷对外发动网络攻击来窃取情报,对内则进行严密网络管制,是公认的“网络无赖政权”。

美国计算机安全公司Mandiant 2月19号发表的这份报告,长达60页,详细分析了近年来美国各行业遭受的网络袭击。报告指出,网络攻击来自于中国的一个俗称“注释组”(Comment Crew)或“上海组”(Shanghai Group)的黑客团体,这一组织的总部位于上海浦东的一幢12层楼。而中共61398部队恰恰驻扎在这里。

《纽约时报》中文网报导,61398部队实际是解放军总参三部二局,是中国计算机间谍活动的重要组成部分。《维基解密》公开的一份美国国务院电报揭示,美国担忧61398部队向政府网站发起攻击,但出于继续跟踪的需要和外交上的考虑,美国政府没有公开这个问题。

近期,《纽约时报》、《华尔街日报》等美国传媒机构遭到攻击之后,Mandiant公司发布了详细调查报告,从而使中共黑客部队被曝光。但中共国防部19号对这一指证进行了否认。

美国“哥伦比亚大学”访问学者 谷川:“它如果承认的话,那世界上所有的国家就会对它进行谴责。所以它肯定不会承认这样的网络攻击。它肯定说:即使有这些攻击,也不是军方支持的。”

报告显示,自2006年以来,中共黑客组织入侵了美国20个主要领域的将近150个主要机构,并窃取了大量数据。 Mandiant公司追踪到了其中几名黑客的入侵过程,发现他们在为中共军方服务。

报导说,虽然美国政府也有网络作战人员,但美国禁止将攻击性手段用于非军事目地或窃取公司数据,对他们的行动要求非常严格。而相比之下,中共发起的网络攻击则无所顾忌,美国各大商业公司、机构都成为袭击目标,黑客甚至还试图操纵电网等关键基础设施。

“全球自由信息运动”网站创办人 张新宇:“那就是斗争哲学嘛。它(中共)什么东西都不讲道理的。枪杆子里出政权,它是不讲道理的。它从来就不按法则的,就按实力,像动物世界以爪牙和拳头作为标准。”

“全球自由信息运动”网站创办人张新宇认为,从技术上讲,美国一直是互联网行业的领袖,中共远不是对手。但一党独裁的中共掌控着中国所有资源,为维持政权不倒,一直在互联网领域投入大量人力、物力。

张新宇:“以前是搞病毒的研究,后来就是怎么样来限制老百姓、封网、防火墙这类东西。那当然现在就是搞这些主动进攻的黑客技术。”

2009年12月中旬,至少20家美国公司遭到中共名为“极光行动”的黑客攻击。谷歌旗下Gmail成主要受害者,知识产权被盗取。此外,黑客还入侵了中国人权活跃人士的电子邮件。

上海维权访民 沈佩兰:“我家的这条网线,他们是一直攻击的,攻击很厉害的。网页打不开,出现乱七八糟的病毒,杀都杀不掉的。”

另据《美国之音》报导,“英国广播公司(BBC)”驻华记者约翰.苏德沃斯(John Sudworth)日前试图到61398部队驻地附近拍照,但遭到岗哨制止并被短暂扣留。

US Firm: CCP’ Army Behind the Cyber Attacks?

Recently, a US computer security firm released a report.

The report says, cyber attacks aimed at the US,
and coming from Mainland China increased severely.
A Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) secret military unit
in Pudong (Shanghai) is most likely behind the cases.
The CCP military denied the allegations.

However, outsiders commented that externally,
the CCP hacks computers and steals information;
internally, it censors the Internet,
thus gaining the reputation of a “network rogue regime.”

The US computer security firm Mandiant released 60-pages
report on Feb. 19th, analyzing the recent US cyber attacks.
It said cyber attacks came from a group of hackers
known as Comment Crew or the Shanghai Group.
The hackers are located in a 12-story building in Shanghai,
coinciding with the address of military unit code 61398.

The New York Times Chinese version reported, unit 61398
is believed to be the 2nd Bureau of People’s Liberation Army
(PLA) General Staff Department’s (GSD) 3rd Division,
which is known to play a major role in the cyber espionage.
WikiLeaks had released before a cable document
of the US State Council.
It states, the US has worries about unit 61398
attacking government’s websites.
However, considering the need of continuing tracking,
and diplomacy, the US didn’t disclose this problem.

After the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and other US
media were attacked, Mandiant released a detailed report.
The report had identified and exposed
the CCP hackers groups.
However, the CCP Defense Ministry denied
these Mandiant’s allegation on Feb. 19th.

Gu Chuan, visiting scholar at Columbia University in US:
“If the CCP admits it, all the countries will condemn it.
Thus, it surely won’t admit cyber attacks. It will instead say:
‘Even if there are such attacks, military won’t support them.’”

The report shows, since 2006, the CCP hackers have stolen
massive quantities of data from more than 150 organizations in 20 major industries.
Mandiant traced several hackers, identifying them
as working for the Chinese military.

The report says, the US government has employed
cyber-crime fighters.
However, the US government is very strict in this regard,
prohibiting using that for non-military purpose or for stealing companies data.
In comparison to this,
the CCP’s cyber attacks are rather irresponsible.
The US companies and organizations became major target;
the hackers even tried to control critical infrastructures, such as the electrical power grid.

Zhang Xinyu, founder of Global Information Freedom
Movement: “This is the philosophy of struggle.
The CCP is unreasonable. ‘Political power grows out of the
barrel of a gun’ [Mao’s quote] – they are unreasonable.
The CCP never follows rules, but force,
it is like in the animal world, using claws and kicks.”

Zhang Xinyu believes, technologically the US has led
the computer industry, so the CCP isn’t a match for them.
However, the one-party dictatorship controls all resources
in China, in order to survive it has put a lot of manpower and resources into the Internet industry.

Zhang Xinyu: “In the past, the CCP studied computer viruses,
to control civilians, and have Internet blockade and a firewall.
Of course now it has engaged in technology
of cyber hacking.”

During mid-December 2009, at least 20 US companies
were targeted by the CCP hackers – “Operation Aurora.”
Google’s Gmail was the main victim,
with some of its intellectual property being stolen.
In addition, hackers also attacked
Chinese activists’ emails.

Shen Peilan, Shanghai petitioner:
“They always attack my home internet, very vicious.
I can’t open the webpage, there were many viruses,
I can’t even remove them.”

Voice of America reported, BBC’s journalist John Sudworth,
based in China, went to unit 61398 to take some photos.
However, he was stopped by the building guards,
and briefly detained.
