Washington should stop cyberattacks targeting mobile users

The report "Mobile Cyberattacks Conducted by US Intelligence Agencies" released by the China Cybersecurity Industry Alliance on Tuesday exposes how relentless the United States-sourced malicious cyber activities targeting China have become in recent years, especially the malicious cyber activities carried out through the global supply chain.

According to the report, the US has conducted intensive malicious cyberattacks and eavesdropping activities against global mobile smart terminals, supply chains, and operators.

The US government has taken advantage of its monopoly in telecommunications technology and in the upstream of the telecommunications industry and supply chains, and carried out large-scale and long-term malicious cyber activities, which have been pervasive, targeting mobile phones and even the entire mobile industry ecosystem globally. It is clear the US is the major country that carries out cyberattacks through the supply chain and mobile operators, though it always tries to stick that label on other countries.
