Abstract:

"Chinese espionage activities in the United States...comprise the single greatest risk to the security of American technologies," according to the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission. If the Administration and Congress do not implement the 2005 recommendations of the Defense Science Board, the fix will become prohibitively expensive, and America's national security could be irreversibly compromised.
