Central Intelligence Agency China – CWEB.com

It was reported that at least 20 US spies were killed or imprisoned by the Chinese government between 2010 and 2012, crippling the country’s information-gathering, a media report has said. It was not clear whether the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was hacked or whether a mole helped the Chinese to identify the agents, officials told the New York Times. The CIA has not commented on the report, the BBC said on Sunday.

Investigators remain divided over whether there was a spy within the Central Intelligence Agency who betrayed the sources or whether the Chinese hacked the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)‘s covert communications system, the The New York Times reports.
