Russian Hackers hacked White House computer Network

Russian government Hackers breached the White House's unclassified computer networks in recent weeks, according to a published report.

 In a written statement, the White House said that, while evaluating a recent cyber threat, "we identified activity of concern on the unclassified EOP (Executive Office of the President) network ... In this case, we took immediate measures to evaluate and mitigate the activity."

Cybersecurity firms in recent weeks have identified NATO, the Ukrainian government and U.S. defense contractors as targets of Russian hackers thought to be working for the government.
