- GOVERNMENT OF ESPIONAGE FOR - YEARS. - IS THE INCREASED TEMPO IT SEEMS - TO BE INDICTMENTS ASSIGNED THAT - THE THREAT HAS INCREASEOR THE - U.S. ABILITY TO FIND ESPIONAGE - AND WILLINGNESS TO CALLUT IT - INCREASE? - >> I THINK THE THEFT HAS BEEN - STEADI INCREASING. - SO WE'VE SEEN CHINESE ESPIONAGE - BOTH TRADITIONAL AS YOU TALKEDTH - ABOUT IE PUNG CASE IN THE - OPENING OR ON INTELLECTUAL - PRERTY SIDE IN THE CYBER CASES - FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. - AND OVER THE YEARS THE - DEPARTMENT HAS CHARGED SOME OF - THOSE CASES, BUT THE ACTIVITY - HASINCREASED OVER TIME, - PARTICULARLYWITH THE MADE IN - CHINA 2025 PLAN THAT THAT WAS - ANNOUN01D BACK IN 25 THE SCOPE - SCOPE, I THINK THE PERSISTENCE - USE OF NONTRADITIONAL COLLECTORS - LIKE FOLKS WHO ARE AT COMNIES - AND AREN'T NECESSARILY - INTELLIGCE OFFICERS OR MEMBER - OF THE MILITARY O TAKE - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.

- THE SOPHISTICAON OF THE PLANS, - THEIR ABILITY TO DO CYBERUS - INNS HAS ALSO INCREASED - OVER TIME. - SO WE'VE SEEN I THINK A STEAD - STEADY -- TO MAKE SURE THAT - ACROSS THE COUNTRY THE U.S. - ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND HERE - FOCUSED ON THE THREAT THAT WE - RIRE SEEING EVERY DAY IN THE - INTELLIGENCEING THAT WE - WERE GETTING ABOUT THE THREAOF - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY FROM HIN - CHINA. - ifrin: LET'S ZOOM IN O - SOMETHING THAT YOU MENTIONED - BEFORE. - THE CHINESE THOUSAND TALENT - PROGRAM THE U.S. CAMPAIGN TO - RECRUIT ACADEMICS, RECRUIT - SCIENTISTS TO STEAL SENSITIVE - TECHNOLOGY - DID INTELLIGENT COMMUNITY GET
