BOSTON — A U.S. cybersecurity company says Russian military agents successfully hacked the Ukrainian gas company at the center of the scandal that led to President Donald Trump’s impeachment.
Area 1 CEO Oren Falkowitz is a former National Security Agency employee. His company offers e-mail security to U.S. politicians. In an interview Friday, he told The Associated Press that top candidates for the U.S. presidency and House and Senate races in 2020 have in the past few months each been targeted by about one thousand phishing emails.
In the report, he said the GRU agents used fake, lookalike domains in the phishing campaign designed to mimic real Burisma subsidiaries. Area 1 said its researchers connected the phishing campaign targeting Burisma to another that targeted a media organization founded by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
NonxTD Efforts to tarnish? Or Efforts to find the truth?
Yet Trump chose to focus on the Bidens, instead of his Buddy Pooty. Trump isn't concerned about Corruption, unless it's against Him.
Joe Biden tarnishes himself every time he opens his mouth. This post is flagrantly biased
If you aren’t concerned with Biden’s son you are a partisan idiot!!! This should be investigated by both parties fairly and if it’s ok then great! It’s ridiculously to most honestly Americans
These are the Democrats talking points! I always considered the AP to be fair in reporting the news! I was wrong! You guys are another left wing mainstream media!
Looking forward to the data dump!
So a U.S. cybersecurity company says that there could be damaging information on the Bidens in that company.. Perhaps there should be an investigation into that and find out if the Bidens have done something illegal.
etuckerAP MuellerSheWrote
No wonder there was no WH readout of the last Putin call.
You guys r ridiculous. It is a point where you need to bring proves ir to shut up. I thought the role of media is to inform, not to spread gossips.
It might hack this security company to see how ukraine got hacked.
Cold War propaganda still works on leftie idiots, muh russia!!!
Tarnish? You FakeNews. Hunter Biden didn't get money from them while being wholly unqualified? Joe Biden is not seen on video claiming he held back money unless the prosecutor investigation his son was fired?
Is it really 'tarnishing ' if it's the truth? should try it. You all were one of the last bastions of independent, quality journalism. With UPI was still around.
Soon our dear leader will share.
Hopefully, they don’t release all of the juicy criminal activity until after the DNC rigs the primary and Biden is the nominee.
it took 2 minutes to check historical Ukrainian newspapers to find corrupt politicians in Ukraine shook down Burisma YEARS before Hunter took a job with them. Do better AP
You forgot to say '17 intelligence agencies have confirmed...' 😂
Unreal.
And by “hacked” we mean “Viktor Shokin gave Putin the network password”
I bet trumpy funs are ok with it in this case lets play fair and I ask china iran or any other country to hack trumpy taxes and documents related to Ukraine aid hold
Somewhere deep in the bowels of Burisma’s electronic archives, someone will plant false documents and information that helps further propagate this fantasy the administration and the associated cabal has cooked up. It’s a sad day for all.
Is Crowdstike still transmitting info to you? Let's file this under.....
In other words.. “oh sh!t, they’re uncovered our shady money laundering through burisma quick....someone plant a story and say it was the Russians” We will confirm it later and say it’s true.. like a reverse “wrap up smear”
Hopefully the cybersecurity company is not part of your 5 security sources that advised you the Ukrainian plane was definitely an engine malfunction. If so, they're lying again.
You have to be a M5M stooge to believe this
The plot sickens.
Democrat narrative again? Don’t tell us ... crowdstrike told you so ?
TedMillerRK Down goes Biden! They’ve got the goods in Biden now
Biden's Corruption....
the truth comes out
Ha ha, this AP article reads like it was written by Pravda. Pure propaganda.
natashakorecki 😂 What a headline from the resisting AP social media intern
Lock him up! 🎶🔥👩⚖️⚖️👨⚖️🔥🎶
The Bidens have tarnished themselves. Fools the whole lot of em
Lol
So the Russians are trying to protect us from the deep state trying to protect us from the russians
Gotta make sure their boy wins just like in 2016
Rudy!
Don't forget bidens pedo ring in the basement of the pitsa parlor.
FakeNews realDonaldTrump doesn't have to 'tarnish' Joe Biden, Joe did it to himself. Surely you saw the video.
Here we go again. Russia trying to do Trump some favors
Of course they did, with US incompetence at an all time high, this sort of garbage will keep the idiots, stupid... Meanwhile if you own an Apple phone or use Twitter, Facebook or a computer with Microsoft can you please send your house keys to the CIA...
Take this ridiculous headline down. You are supposed to be a news organization
Biden tarnished himself with his incompetent kid pro quo kid.
So Russia will now become involved with “the investigation “ and Giuliani with tout “facts” coming from Russia, so the Repubs, will feed the propaganda to Trumps base who will believe the BS.
Tarnish? As in calling out quid pro quo? Journalism is a joke in this country. Complete joke.
Typical trump and Russians stirring up sh*t all over the world , and trump and his butt 💋in Republicans haven't done one thing to try to stop them!
This is so convoluted.
etuckerAP Yet the current administration will NEVER acknowledge it just as they tried the conspiracy theory that it was Ukraine that has hacked us knowing full well it has been and still is Russia. What does Russia have on them? It will eventually come out, all involved held accountable !
And queue the morons saying it’s a hoax....Regardless of how much evidence there is.
FakeNews RussiaHoax RussiaHoaxRerun
Thanks Russia...
the evidence of the real quid pro quo 😳
Hunter Biden tarnished Joe Biden. Are the hotshots at AP going to investigate Hunter’s connection to the counterfeiting ring or sweep that under the rug, too?
Wait, trump is tarnishing Biden? The Bidens admitted to getting paid off every month by the board of that Ukraine company. It’s not made up fake news like this. It’s a fact. The Biden’s tarnished the Biden’s.
They tried to tarnish Biden’s reputation. Lawdy lawdy.
Getting in front of all the dirt about to come out on quid pro joe and his Ukraine oil deal?
Hard to believe any of this - - Why would a Democrat party U.S. cybersecurity company be involved with a Ukrainian gas company? Because Biden worked there? No proof then, no proof now.
MAGA International, Inc.
I wonder who started this conspiracy theory.
Democrats now scrambling under their Russia collusion rocks. Hilarious. Democrats claimed that Russia had dirt on Trump in the dossier. Now Russia has dirt on Biden. Interesting.
Now the question is, did Trump ask -- more likely, beg -- Putin to do this?
Kill Putin....
Show proof unknown company
Bullshit! Enough already.
Do tell was it Crowdstrike by chance, still waiting on the Actual Evidence to be shown about the DNC hack/ sike I mean everyone knows it was a download within the DNC no matter what the 17 intel agencies say that never looked at the server.
so the russians interfering in our election. what’s new?
Whoever writes the true crime novel of this shit - Best Seller. Immediate.
Back at it with the lies 😂😂
Russia is a Sht country ran by a little guy with little regard for it's citizens ... we don't care
Trump World.
Lol....seriously blaming the Russians again
Tarnish? Haha. Biden did that on his own.
Did trump call his friend Putin to help him? Won't be the 1st time, probably not the last.
*The Bears are Back in Town*
The Russians trying to help trump. What's new?
There goes Biden😂
Wonder why they'd do that? Favor for Donnie?🤔
