Two inferences from above:
America's ability for cyber warfare is vastly advanced as they have NSA, individual military cyber offensive teams for each unit, even coastguard. Also well built institutions like ISACs and private sector players like Fireeye etc to identify foreign CNE operations and defend against them for both private sectors and Govt entitiesGranted, everything bad that happens in Pakistan is always "raa ki saajish," but the "raa ki saajish" reports during the nationwide power blackouts Pakistan suffered recently stand out. They allege an Indian op.
China is underestimating the Indian/American ability to play cyber warfare.
MH government's validation of the NYT report makes things official now. All the cameras will now turn to the Centre on what happened, and what it has done so far. It also strengthens our case at the WTO to block imports of chinese shit.Report linking Chinese cyber attack to Mumbai power outage true: Maharashtra minister Nitin Raut
The Maharashtra cyber department had initially suspected that a malware attack could be responsible for Mumbai's power outage in October last year, which stopped trains and shut down hospitals.www.indiatoday.in
china is more connected than india as a part of their "surveillance" /social credit system infrastructure and hence very vulnerable.America's ability for cyber warfare is vastly advanced as they have NSA, individual military cyber offensive teams for each unit, even coastguard.

India is not considered a tier 1 cyberpower like USA, China or Russia, but the capability to carry out CNE against Chinese Infrastructure exists
Challenge is to setup the malware within the infrastructure undetected, this can take months, even years and the possibility and all can lost be lost in a instant once discovered.
I suspect this what has happened in this event, Chinese knew India would retaliate to cyber attack on its financial capital and the Indian response would allow them to identify Indian malwares in their strategic infrastructure
They have probably made us reveal our cards, though one can argue in the process Chinese have done the same
In any case, its base to square one for India and China as both would have to have lengthily and meticulous CNE campaigns to install malware in each other's strategic infrastructure
I'd actually argue that in a "dark" way, the Chinese have done us a favor through that cyber-attack. Power companies across India have a legally-valid reason to disqualify Chinese bidders from current and future tenders for decades, and we get higher quality equipment made by companies such as Siemens, Toshiba, Hitachi, etc. We also get to dictate to these companies that none of their products should have made-in-China components. It also incentivizes public investment into BHEL and BEL.America's ability for cyber warfare is vastly advanced as they have NSA, individual military cyber offensive teams for each unit, even coastguard.

This makes a good case against china..when china wanted to do business post the cooling down at LC.MH government's validation of the NYT report makes things official now.

That "cyber cop" has just been outcucked by the State's energy minister. His musings are invalid.0.5 front
Coupta got activated too quick.!That "cyber cop" has just been outcucked by the State's energy minister. His musings are invalid.
Even though the revenge was taken in Pakistan but still it's not enough.
To play the devil's advocate, the cop is right as origin of traffic cannot necessary mean attribution to the specific nation or nation's GovtThat "cyber cop" has just been outcucked by the State's energy minister. His musings are invalid.
Yes, overall impact of a Cyberattack on China is much worse than India as their dependence is much higherchina is more connected than india as a part of their "surveillance" /social credit system infrastructure and hence very vulnerable.
hehe..
Thats just a start!
Because for the last 6+ years and continuing.India has been plugging all leaks and been very vigilant in keeping all lids closed on information that there is no easy way enemies could get their hands on information through "contacts" and dalals.Yes, overall impact of a Cyberattack on China is much worse than India as their dependence is much higher
Also, overall much larger attack surface than India
This Govt certainly is much more responsive than the previous regime, but action is still lateBecause for the last 6+ years and continuing.India has been plugging all leaks and been very vigilant in keeping all lids closed on information that there is no easy way enemies could get their hands on information through "contacts" and dalals.
Also those identified are fed wrong information that china suffers not just one doklam but a galwan too!
china used the same warning on Australia too on their telecom.China appears to warn India: Push too hard and your lights could go out
As battles raged in the Himalayas, taking at least two dozen lives, Chinese malware was flowing into the control systems that manage electric supply across India, along with a high-voltage transmission substation and a coal-fired power plant, a new report has just revealed.economictimes.indiatimes.com
