The National Republican Congressional Committee said Tuesday it suffered a major hacking attack during the 2018 election.

“The NRCC can confirm that it was the victim of a cyber intrusion by an unknown entity,” NRCC spokesman Ian Prior told Fox News. “The cybersecurity of the committee’s data is paramount, and upon learning of the intrusion, the NRCC immediately launched an internal investigation and notified the FBI, which is now investigating the matter.”

Prior added: “To protect the integrity of that investigation, the NRCC will offer no further comment on the incident.”

The NRCC is the committee dedicated to electing House Republicans across the country. The GOP ended up losing 40 seats in November's elections, as well as its majority.

BFD.

The National Republican Congressional Committee suffered rhino horn dry up the bung in Orange KKKounty KKKalifornia during the 2018 election, and didn't bat an eye.

The KKKaliKKKrats will be exporting their ballot-harvesting system to the other blue NaziKKKrat states for the 2020 eleKKKtion.

In 2015/16, it was reported that hackers attempted to penetrate the RNC's system, just as they did to the DNC. The RNC had better security and the attempt failed. I presume that hackers -- Russians, sundry other intelligence services, Martians, the Botswana Ladies Garden Club, whomever -- are attempting to penetrate the parties' systems on a routine basis. Both parties. All the time. Just as cyber espionage is waged routinely against corporations, banks, research institutions, etc. It's a fact of life in today's world. All institutions must be on guard.

The RNC has reacted as it should: review its own security measures and contact the FBI for a thorough investigation.

For the millionth time, the smoking gun in 2016 was that the Democrats refused to allow the FBI to examine its servers.

Detected in April.
4 Repub bigshots were surveilled for several months and the bigshots only only found out now ?
How nutz is that ?

don’t tell them so they continue to use their email that is being hacked ?

No mention of when it was stopped.

“Committee officials said they decided to withhold the information because they were intent on conducting their own investigation, and feared that revealing the hack would compromise efforts to find the culprit”
