【新唐人2014年06月13日讯】美国国安局和美国安全公司日前确定，又一支中共部队对美国、欧洲和日本的政府机构、军事承包商和太空卫星行业研究公司，进行黑客攻击。他们系统SA性入侵已经七年。这个部队番号是61486，位于上海闸北区。
美国《纽约时报》6月9号报导，就在几周前，美国司法部起诉5名中共军官之后，加州网路安全公司“云反击”(CrowdStrike)又发布一份新的报告，提供更多证据显示﹕中共从外国机构盗窃商业和军事机密的广度和野心。
这份报告说，“对几十个公共和私人机构的攻击，可以追溯到一群上海黑客那里”。
美国国安局和它的合作伙伴已经确定，这些黑客们来自中共61486部队。研究人员表示，受害企业可能有数百家，乃至数千家。
报导说，黑客常常使用狡猾的诱饵。比如，一封电子邮件附件，看起来像是来自法国图卢兹一家瑜伽工作室的小册子。一旦邮件附件被打开，它就允许黑客绕过网络安全系统并盗窃被严密保护的技术。
而随着美国曝光中共黑客入侵行为，美国和中共就网络间谍的冲突正在升级。
双方的紧张已经酝酿多年，但是去年变得更加尖锐，当时美国网络安全公司“曼迪昂特”(Mandiant)确定﹕中共“61398部队”是数千起针对外国公司攻击的黑客源头。
美国“纽约城市大学”政治学教授夏明认为，美国安全公司和美国司法部相继曝光和指控中共黑客，对于美国对华政策有着重要意义。
纽约城市大学政治学教授夏明：“我觉得，美国最新披露的信息，第一个，让美国企业更多的了解他们的脆弱性。我想这个对美国企业的影响是非常大的。尤其现在美国企业对中国的投资环境，都在出现各种怀疑和悲观的时刻。我想这种事报导出来，应该对美国企业可能会引起很大的警觉。而美国企业的反应，应当说又会成为美国企业支持美国政府政策的转变。”
夏明相信，从去年“曼迪昂特”(Mandiant)公司曝光61398部队，到上个月司法部起诉5名中共军官，到现在“云反击”(CrowdStrike)曝光61486部队，是美国政府有意在释放信息。
夏明：“美国现在跟中国关系有些地方在恶化。你可以看到欧巴马政府在强化他的对华政策，尤其是在强化他对中国和俄国联手进行某种回击和报复。我相信，美国公布的这些信息，跟我们看到的，不久前美国司法部起诉五个中国军官是有关系的。”
夏明表示，对美国的公共舆论来说，当有两家俬营公司发现同样问题的话，它的说服力是很强的。它对公众舆论的影响力是很大的。夏明认为，美国政府如果想在对华政策进行调整的话，第一需要赢得商业界支持，第二需要赢得公共舆论的支持。
夏明认为，美国和中共的网络间谍活动有根本的区别。美国的间谍活动基本上是用于国家安全。
夏明：“但是中国不一样。它针对美国的目标，不完全是从国家安全角度来说，它很多还从商业利益，从美国技术专利等等。这里面可以看出中国国家，它对它的国营企业的扶持，用国家机器通过谍报机关，来偷取信息情报，来扶持它自己的国营企业，这里面恐怕跟美国是不一样的。”
此外，夏明指出，美国所有的做法，都受到另外一个权力的监控。美国的所作所为是由行政部门进行运作，而行政部门会受到国会的很多批评和监督。
美国官员说，国安局和它的合作伙伴正在追踪中国20多个黑客团体，其中一半以上是中共军队，因为它们闯入公共和私人公司，包括卫星、无人机和核武器元件制造商，到科技能源公司和研究机构。
“云反击”(CrowdStrike)公司共同创始人乔治•库尔茨(George Kurtz)说，“如果你看看我们在中国追踪的所有团体，（上个月的）起诉只是冰山一角。”

US Exposes Yet Another Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
Hacker Unit
U.S. National Security Bureau and U.S. security companies,
recently identified another CCP unit working
against many networks.
These included European, American and Japanese
government entities,
military contractors and research companies in the space
and satellite industry,
all of which have been systematically broken
into in the past seven years
A US NY Times report on June 9, just weeks after
the Justice Department indicted five members
of the Chinese army,
accusing them of online attacks upon United
States corporations,
a new report came through from CrowdStrike,
released on Monday,
offering more evidence of the breadth and ambition
of China´s campaign to steal trade and military
secrets from foreign victims.
The report stated, attacks made against dozens
of public and private sector organizations,
were traced back to a group of Shanghai-based hackers.
The National Security Agency and its partners have identified the hackers as Unit 61486.
The researchers say, the list of victims could number in the hundreds, if not thousands.
The report claimed hackers always use some clever
cover up to deceive its recipient.
One email attachment looked like a brochure for a yoga
studio in Toulouse, France,
the center of the European aerospace industry.
But once opened, allowed hackers to sidestep their victim´s network security and steal closely guarded satellite technology.
With exposure of CCP hacker intrusions by the US,
US and CCP are upgrading their network spying tactics.
Tensions have been simmering for many years, but grew more
heated last year when American CybersecurityCo, Mandiant,
identified Unit 61398 as source of thousands of attacks
upon foreign companies.
The City University of New York, professor of political
science Xia Ming,
believes that it´s important for the U.S. policy of security
and Justice Department,
to make clear and expose the alleged CCP hackers.
Xia Ming: "I think firstly, the latest disclosed information from
US, makes US companies more aware of their vulnerability.
I believe it has a big impact upon the business side
connected to the US.
Considering now, how US companies have all kinds
of skepticism and pessimism to China's investment
environment right now.
I think this report could cause U.S. companies to take more
action within the areas of vigilance.
While U.S. companies´ reaction may make changes on the
support to US policy from US enterprises.
Xia Ming believes, with Mandiant´s exposure of the five
CCP officers from Unit 61398, and being sued
by the Justice Department,
and also the exposure of unit 61486 from CrowdStrike,
the U.S. government now intends to release information.
Xia Ming: "U.S. and China´s relationship is worsening
in some places.
You can tell the Obama government is strengthening it´s policy
towards China,
especially in their return and revenge ploy of the alliance
between China and Russia.
I believe it is related, with the released information from US
and U.S. Justice Department suing the five Chinese
military officers."
Xia Ming said that it is highly persuasive to public opinion,
when two private companies find the same problem.
It could have a huge impact upon public opinion.
Xia Ming believes, to adjust the US policy to China, first the
government needs to win the support in the business community;
secondly it needs to win the publics support of opinion.
Xia Ming also believes, that the big difference in cyber espionage
between United States and China,
is US espionage is basically for national security.
Xia Ming: "But China is different. China targeted more at business
interests and US technical monopoly, etc, but not only from
the national security aspect.
We can tell the CCP used state machine technology through
intelligence agencies,
to steal information and support its state-owned
enterprises, which is totally different from US."
In addition, Xia Ming pointed out that all U.S. practices
are monitored by another power.
U.S. operations are carried out by the executive branch; and the
executive branch can be criticized and supervised by Congress.
US officials say the N.S.A. (National Security Agency)
and its partners,
are currently tracking more than 20 hacking groups in China,
with over half of the units connected to the People´s
Liberation Army, as they break into public and private
sector companies,
ranging from satellite, drone and nuclear weapon component
makers, to technology and energy companies and research groups.
George Kurtz, co-founder of CrowdStrike:
“If you look at all the groups that we track in China,
the indictments are just the very tip of the iceberg,”
