According to FBI FBI Deputy Director David Bowdich, the bureau “repeatedly warned that Russia is a highly capable cyber adversary, and the information revealed in this indictment illustrates how pervasive and destructive Russia’s cyber activities truly are.”
He added that the indictment also showed that the FBI “has tools to investigate these malicious malware attacks, “identify the perpetrators, and then impose risks and consequences on them.”
“We will relentlessly pursue those who threaten the United States and its citizens,” said Bowdich.
