US Seizes Seven Domains Linked to Chinese State-Associated Hacking Network
The US Department of Justice and FBI seized seven internet domains linked to Chinese state-associated hackers targeting critical infrastructure and networks in the US and abroad. The domains were connected to Integrity Technology Group, a Beijing-based cybersecurity firm with Chinese government contracts. The seizures, authorized by a Pennsylvania magistrate judge, redirected the domains to FBI servers. This marks the second US disruption of Integrity Tech-linked hacking infrastructure in two years, following a 2024 operation dismantling a large infected device network.
