MINISTRY of Defence computer networks have been repeatedly penetrated by hackers, raising fears that sensitive military information could have been obtained by foreign powers.
The ministry was unable to say where the attacks originated, but Western security officials are increasingly concerned that China is using hackers to target sensitive information.
Sophos, an internet security consultancy, estimates that China accounts for 30 per cent of all "malware" programs designed to infiltrate networks covertly.
Since 2005, the Pentagon and other US defence agencies have faced repeated hacking attempts blamed on the Chinese military, a series of attacks codenamed Titan Rain.
Whitehall counter-espionage officials say that there is also evidence of Chinese state-sponsored hackers targeting British networks in recent years.
