Chinese state-sponsored actors hacked into the Treasury Department in early December and accessed unclassified documents from its workstations.

The hackers stole a key from a software service provider, BeyondTrust , and gained access to the department’s computers.

The Treasury Department originally said it would provide Congress members with an update in 30 days as outlined by the law.
