Hacking denied
Print Edition
PRESIDENT Vladimir Putin insisted the Russian state has never engaged in hacking and scoffed at allegations that hackers could influence the outcome of elections in the US or Europe. But Putin admitted the possibility that some individual “patriotic” hackers could have mounted some attacks amid the current cold spell in Russia’s relations with the West.
Speaking at a meeting with leading international news agencies, Putin said: “I can imagine that some do it deliberately, staging a chain of attacks in such a way as to cast Russia as the origin of such an attack. Modern technologies allow that to be done quite easily.”
