Warnings of an apparent attempt to target a group of MPs serve to emphasise how advanced the threat from China has become, as suspected state-backed hacking groups use their own techniques to target different areas of western life.
The fact China is attempting to spy on the UK and others online should come as no surprise. This latest announcement from government is more of a reminder that the activity is constant, and increasingly sophisticated. The UK's National Cyber Security Centre has now implicated a Chinese-backed hacking group, APT31, of attempting to target a group of MPs. There's a clue in the name: APT, or Advanced Persistent Threat is cybersecurity speak for groups usually backed by governments.
We have less information on the 2021 hack of the Electoral Commission, discovered the following year, which has now also been attributed to China. In this instance, the hackers are believed to have had persistent access to the Electoral Commission's systems for months.
