Abstract

The US and UK have accused state-backed Chinese hackers of engaging in cyberattacks and stealing British voter data. The hackers, known as APT31, targeted politicians, government officials, companies, and dissidents. The US and UK have imposed sanctions on individuals and a Chinese firm allegedly involved in the cyberattacks. China has disputed these claims, calling them "disinformation." This incident adds to a series of cybersecurity breaches attributed to the Chinese government, which the US and its allies view as part of a broader strategic and economic competition.
