Excellent article in Vanity Fair about massive increase in cyber-attacks over the past 5 or so years, against U.S. companies and the U.S Government (and many key allies such as Germany, the U.K., Japan and South Korea.) Culprits almost certainly emanate from China. Key motives: Certainly industrial espionage, theft of military secrets, and possibly even more nefarious motives such as dry runs for cyber attacks that would precede a "hot" war. http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2011/09/chinese-hacking-201109?printable=true
