"SNIP...........
The Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation was among the organizations breached by suspected Russian hackers in a dragnet of the U.S. political apparatus ahead of the November election, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The attacks on the foundations network, as well as those of the Democratic Party and Hillary Clintons presidential campaign, compound concerns about her digital security even as the FBI continues to investigate her use of a personal e-mail server while she was secretary of state.
Clinton Foundation officials said the organization hadnt been notified of the breach and declined to comment further. The compromise of the foundations computers was first identified by government investigators as recently as last week, the people familiar with the matter said. Agents monitor servers used by hackers to communicate with their targets, giving them a back channel view of attacks, often even before the victims detect them.

Why I put this old article up. As the CNN journalist asked a Repub today: Has the RNC been hacked? The answer was No.
