Chinese Hackers Remotely Accessed Workstations In 'Major' Cyber Attack

The Treasury Department said Chinese hackers remotely accessed several employee workstations and unclassified documents through third-party software service provider. The department did not give any details on how many workstations had been accessed or what sort of documents the hackers got their hands on, saying in a letter to lawmakers that at this time, they don’t see any evidence that the hacker still has access to Treasury information.
The department, which is working with the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, said the hack had been attributed to Chinese culprits, without elaborating.
