A group of hackers suspected to have links to the Chinese government breached computer systems belonging to New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) in April, according to the New York Times.

Transit officials told The Times that the breach did little damage and hackers did not gain access to train controls.

A forensic analysis of the attack further found that hackers did not compromise customer data or put riders in danger, The Times reported.

The MTA hack is the latest in a string of cyberattacks that have struck US agencies and companies in recent months, including a cyberattack in the past week against major meat producer JBS.
