Chinese state affiliated hackers were responsible for two malicious cyber-attack campaigns targeting UK parliamentarians and democratic institutions, Oliver Dowden told the Commons. The Deputy Prime Minister said that the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), part of GCHQ, had identified a Chinese state-affiliated hacking group responsible for infiltrating the IT systems of the UK Electoral Commission between 2021 and 2023. A Chinese state-affiliated group, known as APT31 also conducted reconnaissance activities against UK Parliamentarians in a separate campaign in 2021, Dowden revealed. “This is the latest in a clear pattern of hostile activity originating in China, including the targeting of democratic institutions and parliamentarians in the United Kingdom and beyond, ” he said. “Taken together the United Kingdom judges that these actions demonstrate a clear and persistent pattern of behaviour that signals hostile intent against China,” he added.
