美国一位国家安全官员星期四对国会说，在法国网络入侵事件公开之前，美国曾通知法国官员，俄罗斯在法国总统选举期间入侵了法国的电脑网络。
美国国家安全局局长迈克尔·罗杰斯海军上将在参议院情报委员会上作证说：“我们知道，在法国选举过程中，特别是最后几周，俄罗斯针对法国选举从事了一些具体的活动。”他说： “我们认为，情况足够重要，因此我们主动和法国同行联系并通知了他们。”
法国选举委员会周六表示，在中间派候选人马克龙的总统竞选团队遭到网络袭击后，“大量数据”，其中一些可能是假的，被泄露到社交网络上。
泄露发生在法国周日决选的36小时之前。马克龙在决选中战胜了极右派候选人勒庞。法国选举官员说，被泄露的信息明显来自马克龙和他一些竞选经理的电脑系统及电邮账号。
The U.S. informed French officials that Russia had hacked France’s computer networks during the country’s presidential election before the cyber attacks became public, a U.S. national security official told Congress Thursday.
“We are aware of specific Russian activity directed against the French election cycle, in the course, particularly in the last few weeks,” National Security Agency Director Admiral Mike Rogers testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee. “We think it was important enough that we actually reached out to our French counterparts to inform them,” Rogers added.
France’s election campaign commission said Saturday “a significant amount of data,” some of it likely fake, was leaked on social networks after a cyber attack on the presidential campaign of centrist candidate Emmanuel Macron.
The leak came 36 hours before France’s runoff election Sunday in which Macron beat far right candidate Marine Le Pen. French election officials said the leaked data apparently came from the computer systems and email accounts of Macron and some of his campaign managers.
