British intelligence agency warns of possible cyber attacks against its political system

Posted date 14/03/2017

Britain's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) had contacted the main political parties in the country to warn them of potential hostile actions against the British political system, citing accusations of Russian hackers who tried to influence the presidential elections in United States last year.

The NCSC has confirmed to have alerted on this question, but has not confirmed that the main risk of cybersecurity is Russia.
