Iranian Hackers Target Biden Campaign with Stolen Trump Info
News summary

U.S. agencies revealed that Iranian hackers attempted to interfere in the 2024 presidential election by sending stolen material from Donald Trump's campaign to individuals connected with Joe Biden's campaign. The FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence noted that these actions are part of a broader Iranian strategy to undermine confidence in the U.S. electoral process. The hackers sent unsolicited emails containing excerpts from the stolen material, but there was no evidence that recipients engaged with the emails, which were largely viewed as spam. Iran has denied these allegations, stating it has no intent to interfere in U.S. elections. Trump's campaign has claimed that this interference was an effort to aid Kamala Harris and Biden, calling for transparency regarding the stolen material. The situation highlights ongoing concerns about foreign influence in U.S. elections as the race heats up.
