Russia hacked Yahoo: DOJ charges
The Department of Justice indicted two Russian
intelligence officers and two other people, in connection with a conspiracy to
hack into Yahoo's networks.
The defendants, including two officers
of the Russian Federal Security Service, Dmitry Dokuchaev and Igor Sushchin,
were able to gain information about "millions of subscribers" at
Yahoo, Google, and other webmail providers, the Justice Department said.
Dokuchaev and Sushchin paid
co-conspirators Alexsey Belan and Karim Baratov to access email accounts, the
Justice Department said. Acting Assistant Attorney General Mary McCord said
that Belan is a "notorious" criminal hacker — one of the FBI's most
wanted — known for hacking U.S. e-commerce companies.
