ASIO boss Mike Burgess also took the rare step of rebuking China even as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese prepares to visit later this year.
Intelligence chiefs from Australia and around the world have lashed out at China for what they say is the most sophisticated program of intellectual property theft in history, warning that Beijing’s espionage is so widespread it requires an unprecedented global response.
“The Chinese government are engaged in the most sustained, sophisticated and scaled theft of intellectual property and expertise in human history,” Burgess said. “The scale of the threat from China is so unprecedented that not only is no single solution going to be enough; no single country can be enough to try to adequately safeguard against them.”
In another case closer to home, China was able to steal the intellectual property of a successful Australian company by downloading malware into a staff member’s laptop at an overseas conference.
