An investigation has determined that Chinese state actors were responsible for a 2021 cyberattack on Germany's national office for cartography. The Chinese ambassador was summoned to the Foreign Ministry for a protest.
This serious cyberattack on a federal agency highlights the danger posed by Chinese cyberattacks and spying, threatening the digital sovereignty of Germany and Europe. Germany called on China to refrain from such activities.
Germany's attribution of the cyberattack reflects increasing tensions with Beijing on security risks. Previous incidents included arrests related to spying for China, indicating broader concerns.
