The US and UK officials have taken action against Chinese hacking group APT31, imposing sanctions and criminal charges. The hackers allegedly targeted businesses, politicians, and critics, leading to accusations of cyberattacks on critical infrastructure and democratic institutions. The Treasury Department sanctioned individuals and companies linked to the Chinese government, with claims of state-backed hacking campaigns targeting the UK and US. New Zealand also accused a China-linked group of hacking its parliament, adding to the global concern over cyber espionage.
Prof @ciaranmartinoxf on alleged cyber attacks: - UK govt says China is threat to election integrity, yet it has no direct history of that - instead it’s gathering huge data sets on UK population - yet govt thinks disruption of critical infrastructure would be beyond the pale https://t.co/u7QUvEKOqE
NEW: The United States, United Kingdom, and New Zealand accused PRC-state-sponsored cyber threat actors of conducting malicious cyber operations against democratic institutions. https://t.co/b5yuQKJBIK
China hits back at US, UK for sanctions on espionage hacks as coordinated pressure on Beijing grows. Accusations of cyber espionage have long been a major point of friction, with the US indicting a series of Chinese hackers in recent years. @CNNSitRoom @wolfblitzer @EricCheungwc https://t.co/yg6IrQ2WAG
