In early December 2024, the U.S. Department of the Treasury experienced a cybersecurity breach. Though China denies involvement, the breach is attributed to a Chinese state-sponsored Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) actor.

China slammed the U.S. Treasury's sanctions against cybersecurity firm Integrity Technology Group for its alleged role in hacking incidents.

Threat actors entered Treasury Department systems through BeyondTrust. The breach may be related to the Salt Typhoon attacks.
