網絡安全公司稱俄羅斯黑客曾攻擊美國參議院
A U.S. computer security firm says that Russian hackers who stole emails from the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 presidential election have been trying to steal information from the U.S. Senate.
A new report by security firm Trend Micro posted on their website Friday said that hackers set up websites in June meant to look like the Senate internal computer network in an attempt to trick people into providing access to information.
The firm said the group of Russian hackers, known as Fancy Bear, is politically motivated and still very active.
It did not say whether the operation targeting the Senate had successfully stolen information. The company said it has given information about the hackers' activities to the Senate.
U.S. intelligence agencies said Fancy Bear hackers stole emails from the DNC during the 2016 presidential election.
Also noted in Friday's report, Trend Micro said the hackers have set up infrastructure aimed at collecting emails from several Olympic Sports federations, including those for ice hockey, bobsleigh and skiing.一家網絡安全公司稱，曾經在2016年總統選舉期間竊取美國民主黨電郵的俄羅斯黑客一直試圖從美國參議院竊取信息。
這家名爲“趨勢科技”的網絡安全公司星期五在網站上發表的一份新報告說，黑客去年6月設立了一些看起來像是參議院內部網絡的網站，試圖引誘使用者提供獲得信息的途徑。
這家公司說，一個叫Fancy Bear的俄羅斯黑客組織懷有政治動機，而且仍然很活躍。
報告沒有說偷竊美國參議院信息的行動是否成功。這家公司稱已經將黑客的活動信息告知參議院。
美國情報機構表示，Fancy Bear的黑客曾經在2016年總統選舉期間竊取了美國民主黨全國委員會的電郵。
