DoJ: Foreign Adversaries Breach US Federal Court Records


A Justice Department official testifies to a House committee that the cyberattack is a significant concern.



Testimony provided by a Justice Department official to the US House of Representatives late last week has revealed that law enforcement is investigating a cyberattack on the federal courts record-management system, reportedly launched by three hostile nation-states.
Head of the DoJs National Security Division Matt Olsen told the committee that the incident, first discovered in March, is a significant concern, according to Reuters.
While unable to offer more specific information about the
nations behind the cyberattack
, Olsen added his division is focused on China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, Reuters said.
While I cant speak directly to the nature of the ongoing investigation of the type of threats that youve mentioned regarding the effort to compromise public judicial dockets, this is of course a significant concern for us given the nature of the information thats often held by the courts, Olsen said
during his testimony
