| Summary / Abstract (Note) | As the 2016 U.S. presidential election drew near, tensions over cybersecurity issues heated up. On November 5, just three days before U.S. voters went to the polls, NBC News quoted a senior anonymous intelligence official and some classified documents as saying that "U.S. military hackers have penetrated Russia's electric grid, telecommunications networks, and the Kremlins command systems, making them vulnerable to attack by secret American cyber weapons should the U.S. deem it necessary." |
