Several U.S. government agencies have reportedly been hit by a cyberattack while Chinese spies appear to have separately infiltrated hundreds of public and private networks around the world.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) said in a statement to CNN that the agency was “providing support to several federal agencies that have experienced intrusions affecting their MOVEit applications.”

It was not immediately clear which government agencies had been impacted or who the culprit was, although a “Russian-speaking ransomware group” reportedly claimed credit for the campaign, which targeted other entities around the world.

CISA Director Jen Easterly told MSNBC that the software that was targeted is used by agencies and companies around the world.
