Russia cyber attack: Large hack 'hits government'
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36933239A "professional" cyber attack has hit Russian government bodies, the country's intelligence service says.
A "cyber-spying virus" was found in the networks of about 20 organisations, the Federal Security Service (FSB) said.
The report comes as Russia stands accused over data breaches involving the Democratic Party in the US.
The Russian government has denied involvement and has denounced the "poisonous anti-Russian" rhetoric coming out of Washington.
The FSB did not say who it believed was responsible for hacking Russian networks, but said the latest hack resembled "much-spoken-about" cyber-spying, without elaborating.
