Hack

President Vladimir Putin said that Russia does not support the actions of hackers who have hacked the WADA database, RBC reports . At the same time, he delighted to figure out what the crackers were able to find out.

"We do not share what the hackers do, but what they have done cannot but be interesting for the international public, primarily the sports community. There are a lot of questions. It seems like healthy athletes are legally taking medications prohibited for others, and people who clearly suffer from severe diseases, severe disabilities, even on suspicion of taking some drugs, are removed from some drugs. Paralympic games, ”Putin said.

Meanwhile, on Friday, the hacker group Fancy Bear posted an open access to the third selection with the names of athletes who received permission from the World Anti -Doping Agency to receive doping, Interfax reports . This list includes 11 athletes from Great Britain, Denmark, Australia, Spain and Germany.

On Tuesday, Fancy Bear hackers published datastolen from the Adams hacked system . In this base, WADA stores all the results of doping tests. As follows from the published data, a number of famous American athletes, including Tennis players Serena and Visitus Williams and gymnast Simon Biles, took doping for a long time.

At the same time, the Williams sisters used these drugs with the resolution of WADA. The agency, as well as international sports federations, allow the use of doping for treatment.

WADA in its statement identified Fancy Bear with the Russian hacker group TSAR Team (APT28). Earlier, experts have already noted that the same hackers work in both groups. Hacking, reported by WADA, was performed through an account opened before the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro for the International Olympic Committee.

On the same day, Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov rejected the involvement of the Russian authorities in the hacking database WADA. "It can definitely be said that at least any involvement of official Moscow, the government, some Russian services in such actions - this can not be discussed. This is completely excluded," the official said.

On Thursday, hackers published confidential files of 25 athletes from eight countries, including 14 medalists of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The list included one representative of the Russian Olympic team - a silver medalist of games, boxer Misha Aloyan. According to the above documents, on August 21, a tuaminoheptan was identified in his body - a drug considered a stimulant.

In addition to Aloyan, the second part of the list mention ten American, five British and five German athletes, as well as one representative of Denmark, Poland, the Czech Republic and Romania. WADA confirmed that all documents are genuine and obtained as a result of hacking the ADAMS system.

According to the general director of WADA Oliver Nigli, the organizations “have no doubt” that hacker attacks are associated with the publication of the report of independent commissions of the Pound and McLaren, exposing the doping program in Russia sponsored by the state. “We condemn this criminal activity and ask the Russian government to do everything that is in his power to stop it,” said Nigly. “The ongoing cyber attacks from Russia seriously undermine the work aimed at creating the corresponding standards of the anti -doping program in Russia.”
