Quad leaders discussed cyber attacks: White House

Washington: The leaders of the Quad countries of India, Australia, Japan and the United States discussed the issue of cyber attacks during talks conducted earlier in the day, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on Friday.

“Without getting into too much detail, they discussed both recent cyber-attacks and semiconductors in the course of the conversation today. The leaders agreed — as part of the Emerging Technology working group to look at the supply chain question including as it relates to semiconductors to make sure that we do not have shortages of critical materials,” Sullivan said during a briefing at the White House.
