Prime Minister Scott Morrison told lawmakers that while investigating the previously announced parliament hack “we also became aware that the networks of some political parties, Liberal, Labor and Nationals have also been affected”.
“Our cyber experts believe that a sophisticated state actor is responsible for this malicious activity,” he said.
