(Reuters) – Rupert Murdoch owned-News Corp said in a regulatory filing on Friday that one of its network systems was the “target of persistent cyberattack activity”.
The company did immediately respond to a request for comment on a Wall Street Journal report that said cybersecurity firm Mandiant’s investigation of the attack showed the hackers “likely meant to gather intelligence to benefit China’s interests”.
