This is your Dragon's Code: America Under Cyber Siege podcast.

Hey there, folks I'm Ting, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the latest in cyber warfare. This week has been a wild ride, especially with China's sophisticated cyber operations targeting US infrastructure. Let's dive right in.

One of the most notable attacks comes from the Chinese hacking group Salt Typhoon. They've been active since at least 2019 and have been hammering US telecom networks, including a recent breach at Viasat, a major satellite broadband provider. Salt Typhoon's modus operandi is espionage, using unpatched Cisco devices to gain access to critical systems. According to reports, they've accessed US law enforcement wiretap systems and communications of select government officials.

Experts like Jen Easterly, the former director of CISA, emphasize that China's cyber program is a serious threat to US critical infrastructure. These attacks are focused, diligent, patient, stealthy, and highly organized, making them a formidable foe. The US government has been working to enhance its cyber defenses, but there's still a lot of work to be done.

On the flip side, the Trump administration has announced plans to spend $1 billion on offensive cyber operations. This move comes as cybersecurity experts warn that expanding U.S. government hacking could invite retaliation against vulnerable targets like local governments and private companies. Sen. Ron Wyden has expressed concerns about cuts to defensive cybersecurity programs, saying it leaves the country open to attack.

In terms of defensive measures, the White House has issued an executive order pushing for "rules as code" to enhance cybersecurity governance. This means organizations will need to automate compliance and risk management using machine-readable policies.

As we navigate these complex threats, it's clear that collaboration and innovation are key. Whether it's protecting against Salt Typhoon or bolstering our cyber defenses, staying ahead of the game is crucial.
