Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the cyber attack against Capita on 31 March 2023, whether his Department believe Russian hackers were responsible for the incident.

The Cabinet Office, the Financial Conduct Authority and the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) are working with Capita to understand any risks to government data following the incident in March. Investigations, including client consultation are ongoing and it would not be appropriate to comment on the detail for security reasons.
