(CBS News) The Pentagon has expressed mounting concerns over Chinese cyber hacking in recent months. For the first time, the Pentagon used its annual report on China, released in May, to overtly assert that Beijing’s government is responsible for cyber-based attacks against the U.S., specifically efforts to steal information from federal agencies.

Last week, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel said, “The United States has expressed our concerns about the growing threat of cyber intrusions, some of which appear to be tied to the Chinese government and military.”

Earlier this week, officials committed to regular, high-level meetings to address the issues and work towards setting standards of behavior around cybersecurity and on Friday, 부여출장안마 President Obama will meet with President Xi Jinping at Sunnylands, a 200-acre retreat in Southern California where the White House hopes the leaders will be free from the formalities of a state visit.
