USA: Russians ripped off the Olympics
American intelligence again accused Russia of cyber attacks. Information about this was published by the Washington Post newspaper, citing sources in the US intelligence services.
This time, Washington suspects Moscow of the fact that it was she who organized the cyber attack on computer systems that provide for the Olympics in Pyeongchang. Recall that a cyber attack led to numerous disruptions during the opening of the Olympic Games.
As a result of the cyberattack, serious problems arose with access to the Internet, and the broadcast of the Olympic Games went astray. Also, difficulties were noted with access to the official website of the Olympics. As a result, many people could not attend the games because they did not print tickets from the Olympics site. At the opening ceremony of the games, many places were empty - and hackers played a role in this.
Although the first suspicions fell on the DPRK special services, in reality, according to American intelligence, the Russian hackers carried out the attack. According to the Americans, so Moscow avenged the fact that Russian athletes were not allowed to participate in the Olympics under the flag of the Russian Federation.
