The superpower America has been hit by a wave of hackers. Hackers’ cassettes provide information on key government departments. However, the US government suspects that cybercriminals may have carried out massive malware attacks on various branches of the country. Authorities declined to provide details about the incident. Some officials say the hacking is real. Is there any country behind this hacking? Authorities are also investigating. Suspicions are also being expressed that Russia is mainly involved. All information on Internet and telecommunications policy-making bodies, including the U.S. Treasury Department, appears to have been hacked.
Some officials say hackers have hacked the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, a key part of the Treasury and Commerce Department.
Is Russia behind hacking attack?
U.S. officials suspect Russia of being behind the hacking attack. Fire Eye Hacking, a leading American cyber security company, is currently under suspicion of being involved in a hacking attack. John Ulliot, a spokesman for the U.S. National Security Council, said emergency measures were being taken to prevent further damage from the hacking attack. It seems that a meeting will have to be held in the White House to discuss this.
