Here is the congressional sworn testimony of Shawn Henry, the CEO of Crowdstrike, specifically saying that there is no concrete evidence of Russian hacking of the DNC. https://intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/sh21.pdf https://intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/sh21.pdf You can peruse the whole pdf or jump straight to the money quote on page 32. As for federal indictment on North Korea, that means nothing on the merits or dubiousness of the North Koreans hacking Sony. In fact, there was a smoking gun to a disgruntled ex employee. On a side note Sony and Sony entities were publicly hacked over 18 times prior to this as “revenge” for the PS lawsuit against the hacker who exposed encryption keys of the Playstation. https://www.wired.com/2014/12/evidence-of-north-korea-hack-is-thin/ https://www.wired.com/2014/12/evidence-of-north-korea-hack-i... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_hack#Doubts_about_accusations_against_North_Korea https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_hack#Doubts_abou... https://www.wired.com/2014/12/evidence-of-north-korea-hack-is-thin/ https://www.wired.com/2014/12/evidence-of-north-korea-hack-i...

>Here is the congressional sworn testimony of Shawn Henry, the CEO of Crowdstrike, specifically saying that there is no concrete evidence of Russian hacking of the DNC. It feels like you're being deliberately dishonest. Your "money quote" is about whether there were was concrete evidence of the hackers exfiltrating data from the DNC, not about "Russian hacking of the DNC" . What Shawn Henry is saying there is that they have evidence of the hackers preparing data for exfiltration, but no concrete evidence of the data being transferred out. Unless the malware used by the hackers stores detailed logs, this is to be expected. It would be unreasonable to doubt that the exfiltration happened on this basis. >In fact, there was a smoking gun to a disgruntled ex employee There wasn't. None of your links substantiate this claim. The wikipedia section consists of uninformed clowns like Sabu and hilarious quotes like "State-sponsored attackers don't create cool names for themselves like 'Guardians of Peace' and promote their activity to the public.". There's no genuine attempt at convincing criticism of the NK attribution to be found here. >As for federal indictment on North Korea, that means nothing on the merits or dubiousness of the North Koreans hacking Sony The federal government has a pretty good track record of getting these things right. The DOJ certainly believes that NK did the Sony hack.
