Chinese Hacker Gets Four Years In Prison For Trying To Acquire U.S. Military Secrets

Su Bin, a 51-year-old Chinese businessman, pleaded guilty in March to being involved in an attempt to illegally access the network of Boeing and other important contractors for the United States military.

Su, also known as Stephen Su or Stephen Subin, was allegedly part of the operation that stole sensitive military information that included data on the C-17 transport aircraft and plans for the F-22 and F-35 fighter jets used by the United States.

Su has now charged with a prison term of 46 months by the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, along with a fine of $10,000. The government of China has denied being involved in the hacking scheme, but U.S. national security assistant attorney general John Carlin implicated military hackers from the Asian country in the case.
