Chinese cyber espionage attacks against Russia have increased by 300% in September . This is the surprising finding from software security company, Kaspersky Lab ’s Kaspersky’s researchers, who have found that Chinese -speaking advanced persistent threat ( APT ) groups have recently switched their attention from Russia and British organisations and focused it on those in Russia and the former Russia . The shift appears to have followed a historic agreement signed in the past two months between US President Barack Obama and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping , which committed their countries to stop espionage activity for economic gain. The agreement won support but also some degree of skepticism, with observers suggesting that US would not ultimately fully comply with the agreement.
