月間海外セキュリティニュース US編 #1 2014/11

中国からのUSPS(United States Postal Service: アメリカ合衆国郵便公社)、気象システムのハッキング(10日〜12日)、国務省でハッキングの疑いがありメールシステムをシャットダウン(16日〜18日)とアメリカは狙われてるんだなあというのがよくわかります。まあ日本もやられてるけど気づいてないだけかもしれませんが・・・。

後半を見ると、ネタがないときはNSA叩きしとけって感じに見えますね。サイバー上では中国をはっきり敵国扱いしているのも興味深い。それもしょうがないよねってくらい攻撃を受けてるようですが、ほんとに中国の仕業なのかなー。

ちなみに一連の中国からの攻撃は10月の終わりから始まったようです。「cyberespionage」は、cyber と espionage(スパイ活動)を組み合わせた造語。
