CNN: The Russian hackers behind the massive SolarWinds cyberespionage campaign broke into the email accounts of some of the most prominent federal prosecutors’ offices around the country last year, the Justice Department said.

The department said 80% of Microsoft email accounts used by employees in the four U.S. attorney offices in New York were breached. All told, the Justice Department said 27 U.S. attorney offices had at least one employee’s email account compromised during the hacking campaign.

The Justice Department said in a statement Friday it believes the accounts were compromised from May 7 to December 27, 2020. Such a timeframe is notable because the SolarWinds campaign, which infiltrated dozens of private-sector companies and think tanks as well as at least nine U.S. government agencies, was first discovered and publicized in mid-December.
The Biden administration in April announced sanctions, including the expulsion of Russian diplomats, in response to the SolarWinds hack and Russian interference in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Russia has denied wrongdoing.
Jennifer Rodgers, a lecturer at Columbia Law School, said office emails frequently contained all sorts of sensitive information, including case strategy discussions and names of confidential informants, when she was a federal prosecutor in New York.
“I don’t remember ever having someone bring me a document instead of emailing it to me because of security concerns,” she said, noting exceptions for classified materials.

Most probably it was Trump people wanting to know what the SDNY court documents going after Maxwell, (Trump’s pedo-orgy pimp) are going to say and just what they have on Trump via all the Epstein documents evidence they hold too.
The SDNY is Trumps worst enemy and no one else would bother hacking them but Trump’s defense team of his lying lawyer lunatics.
Of course if Trump’s goon squads hack the SDNY they will have it set up in advance to blame those evil russians and include russian text etc in the hacks.
First page of any hackers playbook is make it seem russian hackers did it…
Russia has hacked the world, that is why they want sanctions put on them to stop themselves. Again when the US makes bad decisions they blame Russia. This is why the US is going down the tubes, only when they take their own responsibility will they find solutions and begin to fix their own problems!
…and then there are the Israelis. Do you really think THEY are letting the Russians get all of the good stuff, and leaving the dregs to them?
