The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating a hacking attack on the Democratic National Committee that some U.S. lawmakers and cybersecurity experts say may be linked to the Russian government.
“The FBI is investigating a cyber intrusion involving the DNC and are working to determine the nature and scope of the matter,” the bureau said in a statement Monday. “A compromise of this nature is something we take very seriously, and the FBI will continue to investigate and hold accountable those who pose a threat in cyberspace.”’
