Taiwan Taking Steps to Protect Itself Against Cyberattacks from China

In response to what Taiwan claims is a growing cyber threat from China, it has set up a unit to create a comprehensive Internet shield against hackers, the country’s intelligence chief has said.

Tsai Teh-sheng, head of the island’s National Security Bureau, described the perceived cyber threat from China as ‘very severe’, after he was asked to evaluate it in parliament by Kuomintang legislator Lin Yu-fang.
