Big cyber attack on Australia, PM Morrison expressed doubt on China

Not only India and America, but also China's relations with Australia are not going well. Tensions between Australia and China are heightened over the Corona virus.

Meanwhile, there was a major cyber attack on Australia in which cyber criminals targeted government, industrial, political organizations, education and health websites.

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has raised doubts about China over cyber attacks but has not directly named China.

The Australian Prime Minister said that the cyber attack on our country is not a new thing but in recent times it is seeing a lot of momentum. Not only Australia but China is targeting its neighboring countries Japan and Taiwan.

The Prime Minister of Australia has said that the country has been made the victim of a very large scale cyber attack.

Morrison said at the press conference that several sensitive departments had been targeted so far. He warned that Australians may face "certain risks" and many more such attacks in the future.

Without accusing any country, Morrison merely said that only a handful of countries have the capability to carry out such a high-level cyber attack. These include China, Iran, Israel, North Korea, Russia, America and a few European countries.

He also said that the manner of cyber attack proves that it has been done by a country. Morrison said that Australia is working with its allies on cyber attacks.

He said that we are not afraid of these attacks but we are warning people. After the cyber attacks on Australia, the United States and Britain have started a search operation together.

It is believed that recently, when Australia demanded an investigation about the onset of the corona virus epidemic, it angered China.

Also, Australia has consistently spoken out against China's so-called economic "coercion" which is spread through Chinese companies such as Huawei.

It has been believed that such technology companies spread across the globe actually work to gather sensitive information for China and benefit China.
