U.S. Denies Malware Attack Against France
November 24th, 2012Via: Information Week:
Did the U.S. government launch a “cyberattaque” against French government computers in the run-up to the 2012 French presidential election?
That allegation was leveled at the U.S. government by unnamed French officials, according to a Tuesday report in the weekly French newspaper L’Express. It reported that computers belonging to top advisers to then French president Nicolas Sarkozy had been hacked using the Flame cyberespionage malware, which was designed to be used in highly targeted attacks.
