As nation-state hacking becomes ‘more in your face,’ are supply chains secure? www.theregister.com/2025/03/2…

Former US Air Force cyber officer Sarah Cleveland worries about the threat of a major supply-chain attack from China or another adversarial nation. So she installed solar panels on her house: “Because what if the electric grid goes down?”

The home solar system was Cleveland’s personal answer to the question of where to begin securing against the kind of potentially destructive attacks that government agencies and intel analysts warn are on the horizon from groups like Beijing’s Silk Typhoon.

Silk Typhoon is the espionage crew believed to be behind the December US Treasury intrusions. Earlier this month, Microsoft warned that the government-linked hackers are now targeting IT supply chains.
