If I've understood the context of the article, this is admitting that US cyber defenses aren't working.

There's multiple “offensive” objectives from MITM China's comms, to a Nation State DDOS and I suspect it's more about surveilance than knocking out a server.

But if anyone thinks that their country isn't already doing some form of cyber offense already is a little behind the times.
