Newtalk新聞 全球最大加密貨幣交易所幣安（Binance）於台北時間今（30）日凌晨4時許發生重大資安事件。據美國區塊鏈分析公司TRM Labs調查，攻擊者從幣安位於10條區塊鏈上的錢包轉走價值約63.6億美元（約新台幣2,074億元）的加密資產，創下史上最大規模加密貨幣竊盜紀錄。TRM Labs根據鏈上及鏈下情報，高度確信此次攻擊是由北韓駭客組織TraderTraitor發動。 針對有多少虛擬貨幣遭竊，TRM追蹤了幣安所屬錢包在10條區塊鏈上，若依照各項資產遭竊當下的市場價格計算，損失總額約為63.6億美元（約新台幣2,074億元）。若以目前市場價格估算，同一批遭竊資產的價值則約為62.3億美元（約新台幣2,032億元）。 對於誰是幕後指使者一事，TRM Labs根據鏈上及鏈下情報，將此次攻擊歸咎於北韓駭客組織TraderTraitor。而美國聯邦調查局（FBI）先前就認定，TraderTraitor就是去年2月造成15億美元（約新台幣489億元）損失的Bybit駭客攻擊事件幕後主使。 TRM Labs指出，此次攻擊的多項特徵，與過去涉及北韓的加密貨幣竊盜案件相似，包括Bybit駭客事件，以及今年4月發生的KelpDAO駭客事件。其共同特徵包括透過隱私協議Tornado Cash提領少量資金，為攻擊者操作的錢包提供資金；在實際竊盜發生前很長一段時間，就已開始部署攻擊；以及提前取得交易簽章，再於短時間內集中執行大量交易。 幣安於30日發布聲明表示，經他們初步調查，此次安全事件可能涉及一名 DevOps 工程師的筆記型電腦被入侵，致使攻擊者得以存取某個服務容器並提交未經授權的提現交易。 圖：Shutterstock 而幣安於今日發布聲明表示，經他們初步調查，此次安全事件可能涉及一名 DevOps 工程師的筆記型電腦被入侵，致使攻擊者得以存取某個服務容器並提交未經授權的提現交易。我們目前未發現任何錢包私鑰洩露的證據。待調查完成、事實得到全面核實後，我們將發布詳細的技術復盤報告。 幣安表示，此次事件造成的總影響估計約為63億美元。我們已與區塊鏈合作夥伴協作凍結受影響資產，目前已在鏈上凍結約30億美元。而幣安將透過SAFU基金及公司自有資金承擔全部損失，強調用戶資金是安全，而幣安也將在修復工作完成後，發布更新版的儲備金證明（Proof of Reserves）。 幣安表示，為即時防範潛在風險，已在完成安全檢查前暫停加密資產充值及提現服務，同時撤銷受影響地址的授權，並與執法機關及區塊鏈情報合作夥伴合作，追蹤遭轉移資金並設法追回。幣安強調，團隊正全天候投入調查與處置工作，務求安全、徹底解決此次資安事件，並持續與執法機關密切合作，確認涉案人士身分，依法追究其責任。延伸閱讀：幣安驚傳資安危機！近60億美元資產疑涉案 比特幣跌至6週低點、近24萬人爆倉蘇巧慧前進永和溪洲市場掃街！攤商菜頭蔥蒜送不停 民眾高喊「全家都投給你！」不只遭爆霸凌等爭議 佀廣洋涉賄選遭檢諭12萬元交保和宋楚瑜視察馬太鞍溪防洪工程 卓榮泰：打造四道堤防給鄉親雙重安全保障侯友宜出動陪掃街 李四川：今年是做事連線與選舉連線的對決

Newtalk新聞 美國太平洋陸軍司令克拉克（Ronald Clark）27 日表示，美軍已將中國可能在 2027 年前具備武力奪取台灣的能力，甚至可能採取行動的情境納入印太戰區部署規劃，強調「戴維森窗口」（Davidson Window）所代表的威脅依然存在。與此同時，德國總理梅爾茨（Friedrich Merz）近期訪問亞洲期間，也針對台海局勢與德國對中政策發表看法，重申德國維持一中政策，但政策具體如何實施，將由德國自行決定。 美國軍事媒體《星條旗報》（Stars and Stripes）報導，克拉克在夏威夷檀香山舉行的「印太科技會展」（TechNet Indo-Pacific）上指出，美國太平洋陸軍已採取名為「陸軍前沿戰備」（Army Ready Forward）的戰略，透過輪調方式，將裝備、物資及人員部署至國際換日線以西、鄰近中國的島鏈，提前做好戰區應變準備。 美國太平洋陸軍司令克拉克上將27日表示，美軍太平洋司令部已在「中國將於2027年具備（並可能有意願）以武力奪取台灣」的假設下，完成印太戰區準備。 圖：翻攝「X」@USARPAC（資料照） 「戴維森窗口」源自 2021 年時任美軍印太司令戴維森（Philip Davidson）在美國參議院聽證會上的警告。他當時指出，中國正朝著在 2027 年前具備武力奪取台灣的軍事能力邁進。這項評估此後成為美國規劃太平洋地區國防預算與軍事戰略的重要參考。 前美國中央情報局（CIA）局長伯恩斯（William Burns）2023 年也曾表示，美國情報顯示，中國國家主席習近平已指示軍方做好準備，力求在 2027 年前具備成功入侵台灣的能力。 美國情報顯示，中國國家主席習近平已指示軍方做好準備，力求在 2027 年前具備成功入侵台灣的能力。圖：翻攝新華網 不過，美國國家情報總監辦公室（ODNI）今年春季公布的年度威脅評估也指出，中國領導層目前並未計畫在 2027 …
