Show Notes

Startling revelations about the frequency of cyber attacks on significant New Zealand organisations.

The GCSB says malicious targeting of the Parliamentary Counsel Office and Parliamentary Services in 2021 was linked to to actors backed by China.

The Government is condemning the actions and publicly backing the UK and US, which have announced retaliatory sanctions over similar claims.

ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says this isn't the first time international agencies have attempted to spy on New Zealand- but the Chinese factor has charged the response.
