American intelligence agencies, in an unusually blunt public criticism of China and Russia, reported to Congress on Thursday that those two foreign governments steal valuable American technology over the Internet as a matter of national policy. Both China and Russia hide behind the anonymity of proxy computers and dispersed routers in third countries to pilfer proprietary corporate information to accelerate their own economic development, according to the new intelligence assessment. They have also targeted the computer networks of government agencies and universities, the report said.<\/strong> <\/p>\n

American officials have for years hinted that China and Russia were leading suspects in the Internet theft of economic secrets, and those accusations have appeared as scattered commentary in government reports. Google has accused China twice in two years of broad Internet intrusions targeting its users. However, American officials, when pressed, have said that pinpointing the culprits remained difficult in cyberspace, and they also usually emphasized that specific complaints of computer-network espionage were best raised in private government-to-government channels. <\/p>\n

In contrast, the new intelligence study, compiled as a report to Congress on foreign economic and industrial espionage over the past two years, presents a pointed case that China and Russia are the leading actors in the Internet theft of economic secrets. \u201cThe computer networks of a broad array of U.S. government agencies, private companies, universities and other institutions \u2014 all holding large volumes of sensitive economic information \u2014 were targeted by cyber espionage,\u201d the report said. \u201cChinese actors are the world\u2019s most active and persistent perpetrators of economic espionage,\u201d it added. \u201cRussia\u2019s intelligence services are conducting a range of activities to collect economic information and technology from U.S. targets.\u201d The governments in Beijing and Moscow, and their intelligence services, contract with independent hackers to expand their capabilities and cloak responsibility for the computer intrusions, the report said.<\/strong> <\/p>\n
