Data Breach at Chinese Cybersecurity Firm Reveals State-Backed Hacking Tools and Target Lists

Hi All

 

On November 2, 2025, Knownsec, a prominent Chinese cybersecurity firm with established ties to the Chinese government, suffered a catastrophic data breach that exposed over 12,000 classified documents.

The leaked materials, which initially surfaced on GitHub before being removed for terms-of-service violations, revealed critical intelligence about China’s cyber arsenal, including sophisticated hacking tools, internal operational procedures, and comprehensive global surveillance target lists.

The incident has generated significant international concern within the cybersecurity community, exposing the infrastructure supporting state-sponsored cyber operations and their worldwide impact.
