CHINA BUGGED AFRICAN UNION HQ, AS AU OFFICIALS ARE ALSO TARGETED BY BRITISH INTELLIGENCE
The US$200 million African Union headquarters was fully funded and built by China and opened to great fanfare in 2012. It was seen as a symbol of Beijing’s thrust for influence in Africa, and access to the continent’s natural resources.
China also built and paid for the African Union’s computer network – but inserted a backdoor hole, allowing it access to the continental organisation’s co...nfidential information.
In January 2017, the information technology unit at the African Union’s headquarters in Addis Ababa noticed something strange, according to a stunning investigation in French newspaper Le Monde.
Every night, between midnight and 2am, there was a strange peak in data usage – even though the building was almost entirely empty. Upon further investigation, the technicians noticed something even stranger. That data – which included confidential information – was being sent to servers based in Shanghai.
“According to several sources within the institution, all sensitive content could be spied on by China,” wrote Le Monde. “It’s a spectacular leak of data, spread from January 2012 to January 2017.”
The Chinese mission to the AU did not respond to Le Monde’s request for comment.
Once the problem was discovered, African Union officials acted quickly to fix it. The organisation acquired its own servers, and began encrypting its communications. In July 2017, a team of experts from Algeria – a country with a notoriously efficient intelligence community – along with cybersecurity experts from Ethiopia combed the building from top to bottom, looking for hidden microphones and other potential weaknesses.
China would not be the first supposedly friendly superpower to spy on the African Union. A separate investigation in December 2016, conducted by Le Monde and The Intercept, revealed that African Union officials were targeted for surveillance by British intelligence.

WHY I WILL BE OFF FACEBOOK FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS
Fellow compatriots, I write to advise that I will be on and off Facebook for the next couple of week, to concentrate on my company's Cybersecurity project at the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) in Swansea.
It can be recalled that our company, Tecomex Forensics Ltd, has been invited to setup a Cybersecurity centre at UWTSD. We have been working on this project for the last 15 months and have now reached a crit...ical stage.
We will keep our eyes and ears on political developments in our fatherland. If there is any serious matter that crops up, which needs CUPS urgent intervention, I promise you we will be there.
Accept my sincere apology for not being able to respond to all of your messages in my inbox. I appreciate your love, respect, and appreciation of the work that we do at CUPS. This is why I will do my best to attend to all of these messages when I come back.
Finally, we solicit your prayers for the success of the UWTSD Cybersecurity project. Thanks and God bless you all. Amen.
Dr. Idris Ahmed. CUPS. 29/12/2017.
