Concern in the United States over alleged Chinese
penetrations of both commercial and government networks has only
intensified in the past two years as successive incidents have come to
light in the media and more organizations voluntarily come forward. The
present study is intended to be a detailed follow up and expansion upon a
2009 assessment prepared for the U.S.-China Economic and Security
Review Commission of China’s evolving computer network operations
capabilities and network intrusion incidents attributed to China.
Earlier in the past decade, the PLA adopted a multi-layered approach to offensive information warfare that it calls Integrated Network Electronic Warfare or INEW strategy. Now, the PLA is moving toward information confrontation as a broader conceptualization that seeks to unite the various components of IW under a single warfare commander. The need to coordinate offensive and defensive missions more closely and ensure these missions are mutually supporting is driven by the recognition that IW must be closely integrated with PLA campaign objectives. The creation of what a probable information assurance command in the General Staff Department bureaucracy suggests that the PLA is possibly creating a more centralized command authority for IW that will possibly be responsible for coordinating at least network defense throughout the PLA.
