The attack on the information system by external forces in recent times are seriously increased. About it in interview to “Rossiyskaya Gazeta” on Sunday, January 15, said Secretary of security Council of Russia Nikolai Patrushev.
According to him, we are talking about computer hacking and unauthorized collection of personal data. For these purposes, in particular, uses the global operators and service providers.
“For example, the administration of [US President] Barack Obama groundlessly accuses Russia of hacking, deliberately ignoring the fact that the majority of Internet servers are in the USA and used by Washington for intelligence and other purposes, aimed at maintaining its domination in the world”, — said Patrushev.
In recent months, Washington regularly accuses Moscow of meddling in the course of American elections by hacker attacks. Appropriate approvals, in particular, contained in the published January 6, declassified part of the report prepared by the CIA, FBI and national security Agency of the United States.
The text argues that the President of Russia Vladimir Putin has instructed to start the 2016 campaign with the purpose of influencing the presidential elections in the United States. The report indicated that Moscow would undermine confidence in the democratic process in the US and to denigrate the democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. 14 January it became known about the intention of the intelligence Committee of the U.S. Senate to conduct its own cross-party investigation into the alleged Russian interference in presidential elections in the United States.
Moscow all charges in the address rejects consistently.
