US officials have accused Iran of trying to influence the US presidential elections by targeting the campaigns of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Tehran has denied the allegations.
US security agencies on Monday accused Iran of launching cyberattacks targeting the presidential campaigns of Donald Trump Kamala Harris ahead of the 2024 election.
“We have observed increasingly aggressive Iranian activity during this election cycle,” security agencies, including the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said in a statement.
The agencies said such activity specifically involved “cyber operations targeting presidential campaigns.”
The intelligence community was confident that “the Iranians have through social engineering and other efforts sought access to individuals with direct access to the presidential campaigns of both political parties,” the statement added.
And Harris is a hacker apparently
Now we know why she was telling everyone to learn to code a few years ago: she was trying to recruit people!
