"US military hackers have penetrated Russia's electronic and telecommunications networks, as well as the Kremlin's command system, with the help of such secret cyber weapons. The United States is ready to attack these vulnerabilities if necessary. This is according to senior intelligence officials, as well as top secret documents reviewed by NBC News," the TV channel reported.
"Cyber weapons would only be used in rare cases if the United States were to carry out a significant attack, - as political figures say," - NBC News reported. "US officials continue to express concern that Russia is using its cyber capabilities to try to sabotage next week's presidential election.
US intelligence chiefs do not expect Russia to attack critical infrastructure, which, in many people's opinion, would amount to an act of war — they believe that it is more likely to be a cyber attack, including the release of fake documents and the spread of fake accounts in fake social networks to disseminate disinformation," the American TV channel explained.
