<p>(Reuters) -A breach at U.S.-based cybersecurity company F5 has been blamed on state-backed hackers from China, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.</p>
<p>Reuters could not immediately verify the report.</p>
<p>F5, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and the Chinese embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment.</p>
<p>Earlier in the day, U.S. government officials said federal networks are being targeted by an unidentified "nation-state cyber threat actor" that's trying to exploit vulnerabilities in products made by F5.</p>
<p>F5 said it had detected unauthorized access to certain company systems by a threat actor, but the breach had no impact on its operations.</p>
<p>Representatives for F5 have told customers that the hackers were in the company's network for at least 12 months, according to the Bloomberg News report.</p>
<p>The report added F5 Chief Executive Officer Francois Locoh-Donou is personally briefing customers about the timeline and the China-linked hackers.</p>
