University scholars smuggled sensitive classified data for publication in journals! The National Security Department reveals details of espionage case.

According to the "National Security Department" public account, in recent years, some foreign institutions and individuals have conducted intelligence espionage activities in important areas such as economy, livelihood, and technology in order to gain benefits, seriously endangering our national security. At the same time, some individuals within the country have a weak awareness of the rule of law and national security, and in order to achieve personal goals, they illegally transfer relevant data overseas, and the related risks cannot be ignored. A scholar named Li from a domestic university actively contacted a foreign non-governmental organization, using internal data as leverage, intending to exchange for the opportunity to publish in well-known foreign journals and improve his academic reputation. The national security agency promptly discovered and took measures to eliminate the risks, effectively safeguarding the security of national secrets.
