IT News: Fledging co-operation between the United States and China on fighting cyber crime has ground to a halt since the recent US indictment of Chinese military officials on hacking charges, a senior US security official said today.
In May, the Justice Department charged five Chinese military members with hacking the systems of US companies to steal trade secrets, prompting Beijing to suspend a Sino-US working group on cyber issues. China denies the charges and has in turn accused Washington of massive cyber spying.
