Russian hackers believed to be sponsored by the Russian government, have compromised the networks of the Democratic National Committee. The DNC first learned of the intrusion in April, but researchers say that attackers had gained access last summer. Two separate hacking groups — dubbed Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear — are responsible, according to security firm CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is investigating the attack, which is believed to have targeted “opposition research” information on GOP candidate Donald Trump, reports the Washington Post. The attack was first discovered by the DNC in April.”]
