Hagel Blames China for Cyber Attacks While Pushing Talks

U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel accused China of waging cyber attacks, in comments made before a gathering of senior Asian officials that included members of the Chinese military.

“The United States has expressed our concerns about the growing threat of cyber intrusions, some of which appear to be tied to the Chinese government and military,” Hagel said in his first major policy address on Asia today at the Shangri-La Dialogue, an annual security conference in Singapore.
