afraid, becoming somewhat more dangerous. 0ur security correspondent, gordon corera, explains why grant shapps stopped short of naming china. we haven't had an official accusation against china, i think we should be clear about that. there is a process which is called attribution which the government does where it says, "we've looked at this incident and we think it was china". now, that can often take time. so, for instance, there was a breach of the uk's electoral commission, which happened about three years ago, and there's onlyjust been attributed to china. so that's how long it sometimes takes to publicly blame another country for something like that, because they want to be absolutely sure. so we have not had that public attribution of blame and we may not get it for some time. so there is an assumption, a suspicion from officials that this was indeed china, partly because of chinese behaviour in the past, because there had been these incidents where they've been going off on this kind of data set. brian lord is a former operation that gc hq, brian lord is a former operation that gc h0,
