Putin Says Patriotic Russians Staged Cyber Attacks

Description

On Thursday, President Vladimir Putin said that patriotic Russian hackers may have been responsible for the staged cyber attacks against countries that had strained relations with Moscow. Putin said that this was done on the patriotic hackers' own initiative, and added that the Russian state has never been involved in any such hacking. Moscow's attitude towards cyber crime is under intense scrutiny after U.S. intelligence officials alleged that Russian hackers had tried to help Republican Donald Trump win the White House.
