Home » FBI & CISA Warn Against Chinese Targeting of COVID-19 Research Organizations
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued a Public Service Announcement warning organizations researching COVID-19 of likely targeting and network compromise by the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Healthcare, pharmaceutical and research sectors working on COVID-19 response should all be aware they are the prime targets of this activity and take the necessary steps to protect their systems.
China’s efforts to target these sectors pose a significant threat to our nation’s response to COVID-19, says CISA. The announcement is intended to raise awareness for research institutions and the American public and provide resources and guidance for those who may be targeted.
