NSA si FBI made statements today regarding the "great Chinese hack", based on which Apple and many other American companies were accused of having their servers spied on by the Chinese for several years. A representative of the NSA stated that despite all the statements made by the journalists, the American federal agency could not discover any evidence that the servers of any company were infiltrated by the Chinese and spied on.
The NSA claims that despite the very large access to information it has, including those regarding the hacking of some companies' servers, it has not yet discovered any evidence to credit the Chinese with any major hack. Of course, the NSA can keep secret problems of this kind, considering that they endanger the national security of the USA, especially after the journalists stated that even the servers of the federal agencies were hacked.
"I have pretty good understanding about what we're worried about and what we're working on from my position. I don't see it […] I've got all sorts of commercial industry freaking out and just losing their minds about this concern, and nobody's found anything. … There's no there yet […] I have pretty great access. I don't have a lead to pull from the government side. We're just befuddled."
NSA, FBI Talk About HUGE Chinese HACK
The FBI, on the other hand, refuses to say if it is even investigating the journalists' claims, the director of the famous federal agency stating that he cannot confirm or deny that the agency is investigating anything. However, the director of the FBI stated that a hack of this kind has a very high potential danger, so all companies must be extremely careful when buying servers from Chinese companies, in order not to end up in situations of this kind.
"We have a very specific policy that applies to us as law enforcement agencies to neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation. I do want to be careful that my comment not be construed as inferring or implying, I should say, that there is an investigation."
The NSA and the FBI practically refused to confirm the fact that the servers of any large American company were hacked, the same was done by GCHQ, the British agency specialized in protecting national security. Separate from the NSA and the FBI, Homeland Security he also denied the existence of any problem of this kind, all the American agencies attacking as if there was a grain of truth in what the journalists said, and he must be buried as deep as possible.
