据《金融时报》报导, 一个名为盐台风的中国黑客集团暴露了美国众议院主要委员会(包括中国的委员会)、外交、情报和武装部门的工作人员使用的电子邮件系统。
A Chinese hacking group called Salt Typhoon compromised email systems used by staff on key U.S. House committees including those on China, foreign affairs, intelligence, and armed services, according to the Financial Times.
这些入侵是12月发现的,涉及未经加密的通信,并可能使人们能够获取敏感数据,尽管尚不清楚立法者的个人电子邮件是否被访问过。
The intrusions, detected in December, involved unencrypted communications and may have enabled access to sensitive data, though it's unclear if lawmakers' personal emails were accessed.
该团体与中国国家安全部有联系,以前曾截获美国官员的电话和讯息。
The group, linked to China's Ministry of State Security, has previously intercepted U.S. officials' calls and messages.
联邦调查局、白宫和各委员会没有发表评论,而中国大使馆否认了这些指控。
The FBI, White House, and committees did not comment, while the Chinese Embassy denied the allegations.
