White House deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes informed about a cyberattack to the White House.
Rhodes told the CNN that hackers gained unauthorized access to the computers non-classified systems and sensitive information, though their classified systems weren’t compromised.
Rhodes wouldn’t confirm or deny if the attack was carried out by Russian hackers or when it happened, but he hinted that it hadn’t been recently. (Wasn’t in the salt couple of days)
Without going into details, during his report he commented that a series of security measures to evaluate and mitigate the damage have been taken.
Panda Security specializes in the development of endpoint security products and is part of the WatchGuard portfolio of IT security solutions. Initially focused on the development of antivirus software, the company has since expanded its line of business to advanced cyber-security services with technology for preventing cyber-crime.
