China: People's Daily Rejects US Hacking Claims

By Mark Stone, China Correspondent

The United States is "scared fans in China," according to an article on the front page of China Daily.

The newspaper, which is the mouthpiece of the ruling Communist Party, or rejected with firmness the possibility of state-sponsored hackers made last week by the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.

"Americans continue to label China as a hacker, just by playing the rhetoric of the 'China threat' in cyberspace, providing further justification for an American strategy to contain China," the article says the first page.

He added: "Even those who have little knowledge of the internet knows that hacking attacks transnational and concealable.

"IP addresses is simply not enough evidence to confirm the origin of the hackers."

The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal announced last week that they have been victims of cyber attacks extended.

Evidence of such media is strongly recommended that the hacking came from China, and that there is no evidence that the attack "state-sponsored".

This relationship produces a wider debate about the alleged involvement of China in cybercrime.

'E was revealed over the weekend that Google's Eric Schmidt, chairman believes that China as "the most advanced and productive" hackers to foreign companies.

Writing in his new book, co-authored with Jared Cohen, Mr Schmidt said that China was "filterer more active and excited about the world of information."

The difficult history of Google and China are well documented. Because the search engine was launched in China in 2006, fought censorship in the country.

China's communist government has made a block at the national level on several websites, including Facebook and Twitter, while specific search on Google and other search engines are regularly blocked if they are deemed too sensitive.

Last year a report by the U.S. Congress said China's state-backed group with increasing levels of sophistication are trying to break the computer system of the United States. The report said China was "the most threatening actors in cyberspace."

The article in People's Daily, which is written in the style of editorial, saying that the U.S. is using national security as a justification for these unfounded allegations.

Americans have long supported China guilty of commercial espionage.

The article also said that, as the Chinese government has made on Friday, the Chinese website has been the victim of a large number of attacks on U.S. IP addresses of other countries, but that "China does not draw simple conclusions or conclusions hasty attack at the source."

According to the New York Times, China hackers steal passwords from the company of 53 employees shortly after the paper published an intervention from a family heritage Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.

Both the New York Times or The Wall Street Journal has explicitly accuse the Chinese government involvement.

The methods used to breach computer systems and 'bouncing' of information across servers around the world means that it is often impossible to accurately identify the attackers.

Largest Prime Number Ever Identified

Mathematicians have discovered the largest prime number ever identified - from 17 million digits.

New record holder and his predecessor, was discovered in 2008, were both found with a vast network of computers called the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search (GIMPS).

George Woltman, scientists are creating a network of GIMPS, said that the task of finding a new prime number is "analogous to climb Mount Everest."

Scientific American said: "People enjoy the challenge of discovery to find something that you've never known before."

The number was invented by a mathematician at the University of Central Missouri.

A different computer systems running on different hardware confirms that it is a prime number.

Prime numbers are numbers that can not be divided by any other number of self or one to produce a whole number.

This is the third Mersenne prime was discovered by the university, and 48 were never found.

Mersenne primes are named after their discoverer, the 17th century French mathematician Marin Mersenne.

They are expressed as, 2P-1 or P the two powers'' 'minus one. P itself is prime. For the new prime, P is 57,885,161.
The research team will be awarded $ 3,000 (£ 1,900) by GIMPS for discovery, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation has offered a $ 150,000 (£ 95,000) for the 100-million-digit first meeting first.
