Much of its work is highly classified, as are the identities of those involved.<\/p>\n<p>China Daily went on to say that China&#8217;s &#8220;technical teams&#8221; claimed to have found evidence that the University of California and Virginia Tech were involved in the attacks on the Games.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Register<\/em> asked the NSA for comment; it confirmed it was considering a response. Neither university immediately replied.<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t tend to often hear about offensive cyberattacks stemming from the West, though it&#8217;s not unheard of either.<\/p>\n<p>In September 2023, China <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2023\/09\/20\/huawei_china_claims\/\" rel=\"noopener\">accused the US of hacking Huawei<\/a> as early as 2009, along with other attacks.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of State Security declared over WeChat at the time that US intelligence &#8220;began to invade servers at Huawei headquarters and continued to monitor them&#8221;. China&#8217;s CERT later accused the TAO of trying to implant Second Date \u2013 an allegedly proprietary spyware \u2013 during an incident at Northwestern Polytechnical University.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, both these news stories coming from China and the one regarding the Asian Winter Games followed tumultuous geopolitical events.<\/p>\n<p>September 2023&#8217;s comment came months after it emerged that Huawei&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2023\/04\/28\/us_sanctions_cut_huawei_profits\/\" rel=\"noopener\">profits had halved following aggressive US sanctions<\/a> placed on the Chinese tech giant over fears about potential harms to national security.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s accusations follow weeks of tumultuous tariff-related feuds between
