Israel’s Iron Dome Blueprints Were ‘Stolen by Chinese Hackers’

Blueprints for Israel’s sophisticated defence system, Iron Dome, were stolen in cyber-attacks most likely carried out by hackers working for the Chinese military, cyber-security experts have reported.

Over a 22-month period, large quantities of documents and data related to the pioneering anti-missile system were stolen from three leading Israeli defence technology companies, Intelligence firm Cyber Engineering Services Inc. (CyberESI) told journalist Brian Krebs.
