There you have it! China’s state-run supercomputer in Tianjin was just breached.
Hackers walked away with over 10 petabytes of highly classified defense documents. Missile schematics. War simulations. Aerospace engineering IP.
Not a small leak. 10 petabytes. They sat inside the National Supercomputing Center for six months, quietly siphoning data through a compromised VPN.
Let that sink in.
The CCP spends billions trying to steal our intellectual property, and now their own centralized defense hub gets completely cleaned out. The irony of China getting hacked for their defense IP is massive.
We don't know exactly who is behind the "FlamingChina" alias yet. Hopefully, it is us.
Read that again.
But don't celebrate too quickly. If China's top-tier military supercomputers can be hollowed out like this, nobody is immune. Not even the CCP. The fact that basic VPN vulnerabilities are still exposing national defense secrets in 2026? A DISGRACE. Of course, this one makes me happy though.
I walked those halls at the Pentagon and DHS. I've always said zero trust is mandatory.
As I explore in my upcoming book, REPLACEMENT (expected end of July), the cyber battlefield is entirely unforgiving. If you are still connecting critical infrastructure to the internet without a foundation of absolute zero trust, we have already lost.
Time to wake up!
