Russian hackers accessed President Obama's unclassified emails: Report


April 25, 2015

Russian hackers had access to President Obama’s emails after infiltrating the White House and the State Department’s unclassified computer systems last year, according to reports. 

The attack was far worse than officials initially admitted and hackers were able to view emails the president had sent and received, senior officials briefed on the investigation told The New York Times. 

Michael Daniel, special assistant to the president and cybersecurity coordinator at the White House, speaks at Bloomberg Government's "Cybersecurity: Costs and Solutions" conference in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Wednesday, Oct. 30, 2013. 

The hackers obtained access to the email archives of people inside the White House and reached emails that the president had sent and received, the Times reported Saturday.
