Hey cyber defenders, Ting here, zipping in with your essential Digital Frontline: Daily China Cyber Intel for June 21, 2025. No fluff—let’s jump straight to the byte-packed heart of what’s happening on the China-US cyber battlefield.
First up, over the past 24 hours, there’s been a fresh flurry of reconnaissance and attacks, adding to the ongoing campaign traced back to Chinese threat actors. The SentinelOne security team, including Aleksandar Milenkoski and Tom Hegel, dropped a bombshell report: more than 70 organizations, spanning manufacturing, finance, telecom, government, and research, have been on the receiving end of coordinated attacks. One group under the microscope is “PurpleHaze,” which overlaps with the notorious APT15 and UNC5174. They’ve been mapping out internet-facing servers—think of it as casing the digital joint—likely prepping for a bigger hit down the line. What’s spicy? Even SentinelOne themselves, usually the guardians, got a taste of the heat. No one’s immune, folks.
Municipalities across the US are also catching strays. Chinese-speaking hackers have been exploiting vulnerabilities in Cityworks, a critical tool that manages local government assets—so yes, anything from waste management to public safety is potentially exposed. The risk isn’t theoretical; these exploits are active and ongoing, with the aim of gathering intel and laying groundwork for larger disruptions.
On the macro level, the US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) made it crystal clear in their 2025 assessment: China’s reorganizing its PLA to sharpen its cyber and space warfare edge. The game plan? Pre-position access within US critical infrastructure, so if tensions snap, they can pull the plug—or worse—on vital systems. These efforts aren’t limited to the power grid; we’re seeing probes into military logistics, finance systems, and even government communications, just like the December breach of the US Treasury’s OFAC and Office of the Treasury Secretary.
So what should you do if you’re in IT, risk management, or are just cyber-curious? Step one: double-down on patch management—especially for internet-facing systems and third-party tools like Cityworks. Step two: monitor all remote access and privileged accounts like you would your most valuable prize. Step three: invest now in network segmentation—treat your crown jewels as if an intruder is already inside. And never ignore employee cybersecurity awareness training.
Expert consensus? This isn’t just espionage for data’s sake—these are hybrid tactics designed to shape geopolitical outcomes, disrupt response times, and blunt any US advantage in a flashpoint. As always, stay paranoid, stay patched, and keep those logs rolling. Ting signing off—until the next ping!
