WASHINGTON, March 17 (Reuters) - A U.S. House of Representatives committee on Monday asked the Homeland Security Department to turn over documents on the federal government's response to reported massive Chinese hacking incidents.

House Homeland Security Chair Mark Green and the chairs of two subcommittees asked DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to turn over records detailing the government's response to two major Chinese hacking incidents, including "Salt Typhoon," which lawmakers have called the largest telecommunications hack in U.S. history, and "Volt Typhoon" that involved espionage into critical infrastructure organizations.
