CHINA has become a major victim to hacker attacks and is determined to fight back as a law governing the punishment of hackers and other Internet offenders is in the making, an official told Xinhua yesterday.
Lawmakers are currently working on the judicial interpretations of the new law due to be released by the end of the year, said Gu Jian, deputy director of the Network Security Protection Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security.
Eight out of 10 computers in China are suffering botnet attack, in which the hackers use malicious software to invade and control other computers, Gu added.
An average of 200 government websites are attacked each day, largely from computers based abroad.
