According to a report from Reuters, senior U.S. and Chinese officials concluded four days of meetings on Saturday which discussed cyber security and other issues.
President Barack Obama said last month that he would raise concerns about China's cyber security behaviour when he meets with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington DC later this month.
Allegations that Chinese hackers have been behind multiple cyber attacks on government and commercial interests in the United States have been vehemently denied by the Chinese government.
According to a White House statement U.S. national security adviser Susan Rice had a 'frank and open exchange about cyber issues' in her meeting this week with Meng Jianzhu, Secretary of the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission of the Chinese Communist Party.
The Chinese delegation also met with Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey and representatives from the Justice, State and Treasury departments and the intelligence community, the statement said.
