Abstract

The US Presidential elections of 2016 were marked by the breaches into the Democratic National Committee’s computer network. This report describes the details and techniques of the hack, their victims and the actors involved, including Russian actors. The research does not focus only on the DNC hack, but also on older and related hacks that were attributed to Russia. The report analyzes the effects of these hacks on US society, US internal politics, economy and the international relations. Finally the paper suggests recommendations for states to prevent the occurrence of such events in their own elections.
