CZECH CYBER AGENCY NUKIB FLAGS CHINESE ESPIONAGE RISKS TO CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Czech cybersecurity agency NUKIB warned of increasing risks from Chinese-linked technologies in vital sectors such as energy, healthcare, transport, and government, citing APT31's attacks on Czech ministries. The agency pointed out risks from Chinese devices like IP cameras, PV inverters, smart meters, phones, cars, and AI models that can send data to or be controlled remotely from China. NUKIB stressed that Chinese laws give authorities broad powers to access data and force private companies to cooperate in state-led spying, urging Czech organizations to implement proper protections against these cyber threats.
