Twenty-three cyber, defense, and intelligence agencies from the United States and other countries released a joint advisory on Aug. 27, laying out the playbook used by Chinese state-sponsored hackers that breached major U.S. telecoms last year, and urging networks to hunt for this malicious activity.
