Washington (CNN)—Russian hackers behind the damaging cyber intrusion of the State Department in recent months used that perch to penetrate sensitive parts of the White House computer system, according to U.S. officials briefed on the investigation.
While the White House has said the breach only affected an unclassified system, that description belies the seriousness of the intrusion. The hackers had access to sensitive information such as real-time non-public details of the president's schedule. While such information is not classified, it is still highly sensitive and prized by foreign intelligence agencies, U.S. officials say.
The White House in October said it noticed suspicious activity in the unclassified network that serves the executive office of the president. The system has been shut down periodically to allow for security upgrades.
The FBI, Secret Service and U.S. intelligence agencies are all involved in investigating the breach, which they consider among the most sophisticated attacks ever launched against U.S. government systems. The intrusion was routed through computers around the world, as hackers often do to hide their tracks, but investigators found tell-tale codes and other markers that they believe point to hackers working for the Russian government.
National Security Council spokesman Mark Stroh didn't confirm the Russian hack, but he did say that "any such activity is something we take very seriously."
"In this case, as we made clear at the time, we took immediate measures to evaluate and mitigate the activity," he said. "As has been our position, we are not going to comment on [this] article's attribution to specific actors."

It’s a good thing that Hillary’s emails were secure on a private server.
The IT security guys who protect the White House...have the same responsibility for the State Department. Never once did they say anything to the Secretary of State. I doubt if they’d know a Russian hacker even if he walked into the room and showed them his KGB badge.
Whoever is putting out this fake Russian hacker story....simply wants to stir the pot and get people onto another talking point.
It’s a good thing that Hillary’s emails were secure on a private server”
Yep, and that she spared no expense having Cablevision as her provider, and Mcafee as the softwear protection. It’s almost like she wanted to be hacked...... wait a minute?!?
Hillary's fault?
Well, that's an easy "hack".
They are trying to convince people the security on the emails is so lacking the terrorist that attacked Benghazi were able to hack into the system and that is how they knew Stevens was going to be in Benghazi on that particular day.
Since it’s impossible to plan an attack against a particular person on a particular day at a particular location without someone guaranteeing they will be there, and there is only 2 people, Obama and Hillary, that could guarantee Steven’s was going to be there on that particular day, they have to try and create some plausible explanation as to how the terrorist knew.

Notice that the WH got hacked via a back door through State.....Hilary’s server anyone? Anyone?
I imagine that the hackers were unfortunately able to delete all of the email correspondence between Hillary! and the White House during the attack.
Very unfortunate....
“But we had installed Kaspersky. How can this be?”
“But we had installed Kaspersky. How can this be?”
“Tell Vladimir I will have more flexibility after the election”
In the first place, it’s CNN, a propaganda outlet for Soros and the rat party. I think that mowowie is on target , stating that this is a ruse to blame the Russian “hack” for Hillary’s missing emails. The execrable state department is infested with commies and liars.
it’s hilary’s RESET BUTTON.....and server.....
The Commie pink fag that occupies the WH has everything to do with it.
It was a one-in-a-million shot. There was an open line at our division in Sunnyvale. The phone company screwed up!
