Indian intelligence questions chinese and American digital storage - is China and America trying to steal Indian strategic defense secrets through their digital hardware?

Hostile intelligence agencies are trying to steal Indian defense secrets through use of computer storage media (CSM) devices like pen drives, removable hard disks, CDs, VCDs and the like.

"There have been reports of increasing number of incidents of leakage of data/documents in defence establishments through the use of pen drives and other digital storage devices,'''' says the security alert, issued to the defence ministry as well as the Army, Navy and IAF HQs.

With cyber-warfare being a top military priority for China, its online espionage agents frequently break into sensitive Indian computer networks. A group of Canadian and American cyber-security researchers in their recent report `Shadows in the Cloud'', in fact, held China-based hackers were regularly accessing classified documents from several Indian defense and security establishments.

The Defence Information Assurance and Research Agency (DIARA), a nodal agency mandated to deal with all cyber-security matters, for instance, is working closely with national agencies like the Computer Emergency Response Team and the National Technical Research Organization. The armed forces, on their part, are also on a high alert to guard against "focused large-scale cyber attacks'''' on their networks.
