Virogen, Inc. (OTC:VRNI), a holding company specializing in data security and encryption technology, today highlighted the recent breach of America's top business-lobbying group's computer defenses by Chinese hackers as another recent high profile attack that shows the importance of effective data encryption technology for governments and large corporations.

On December 21, 2011, a group of hackers in China breached the computer defenses of America's top business-lobbying group and gained access to everything stored on its systems, including information about its three million members, according to several people familiar with the matter.

The break-in at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is one of the boldest known infiltrations in what has become a regular confrontation between U.S. companies and Chinese hackers. The complex operation, which involved at least 300 internet addresses, was discovered and quietly shut down in May 2010.

It is possible the hackers had access to the network for more than a year before the breach was uncovered, according to two people familiar with the Chamber's internal investigation. Damage from data theft is often difficult to assess but people familiar with the investigation said the hacked emails revealed the names of companies and key people in contact with the Chamber, as well as trade-policy documents, meeting notes, trip reports and schedule.

"The Chamber of Commerce's COO stated that the attack was carried out by somebody who was 'very sophisticated' that used 'sophisticated tools to try to gather intelligence.' It is exactly these types of sophisticated attacks that we design our comprehensive solution to data security breaches to prevent. We are continually seeking to update and improve our unique tools and technology," commented Paul Hogan, CEO of Virogen, Inc., on the attack.

"This most recent instance shows how prevalent cyber-attacks have become and how high the stakes have become. We anticipate the demand for solutions to these threats to see aggressive growth while we provide them to enterprise level corporations and governments," continued Hogan.
