Sec Clinton calls for US, China to work together on cybersecurity

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called for the United States, China and other countries to work together on addressing the rising threat of cyber attacks at a press conference in Beijing. "Both the United States and China are victims of cyber attacks. Intellectual property, commercial data, national security information is being targeted," Sec Clinton said. "This is an issue of increasing concern to the business community and the government of the United States, as well as many other countries, and it is vital that we work together to curb this behavior." Though Sec Clinton extended an olive branch to China in her remarks, the United States and the rising Eastern superpower have had somewhat of a rocky relationship when it comes to cybersecurity.
