Farkas: Obama Admin ‘Very Clear’ Russia Is Continuing to Hack U.S. Critical Systems

‘I think the White House has been pretty straightforward about that’

FARKAS: "Donald Trump is going to face this issue in about 21 days. It’s got to be his government that they are now trying to hack. And by the way, yesterday, when U.S. administration officials were briefing people on background, they were very clear that they think the Russians are continuing to try to hack into, maybe not elections at the moment, but certainly into critical U.S., either private or government e-mail systems. So, one of the reasons why DHS actually put up a whole long, probably very wonky manual for technicians who run computer systems for companies and other organizations is that they want the whole of U.S. society, if you will, to be geared up, to be ready and to take down any Russian efforts right now. Because they are doing a lot of this, even today."
