China state-sponsored malicious cyber actors remain one of the greatest and most persistent threats to US national security, the Treasury said. The cyber security industry has labelled such entities as advanced persistent threats , and the government also uses that acronym. Wuhan Xiaoruizhi Science and Technology's activity resulted in the surveillance of US and foreign politicians, foreign policy experts, academics, journalists, pro-democracy activists and others, the Treasury said, adding that in 2018 employees of the company carried out an APT31 malicious cyber operation on a Texas-based energy company.
