On August 12th, The New York Times quoted insiders as saying that the invasion was a multi-year effort aimed at infiltrating the US federal court system.

Russia is suspected to be the mastermind behind the intrusion of the US federal court archives system, and US federal officials are urgently assessing the damage and fixing a long-standing vulnerability in a large and frequently used computer system.

The New York Times reported on Tuesday (August 12) that several people familiar with the intrusion revealed evidence found by investigators that the computer system storing federal court documents was recently hacked, and Russia is at least partially responsible for it. The information in the system includes highly sensitive records that may leak sources of information and individuals accused of national security crimes.

It is currently unclear which entity was responsible for the intrusion, whether it was orchestrated by a department of the Russian intelligence agency behind the scenes, or whether other countries were involved.

Some insiders say that the invasion was a multi-year effort aimed at infiltrating the US federal court system. Some of these searches involve intermediate criminal cases in the New York City area and several other jurisdictions, while others involve individuals with Russian and Eastern European surnames.

At the time of this news exposure, US President Trump is preparing to meet with Russian President Putin in Alaska on Friday (15th). Trump plans to discuss ending the war in Ukraine with Putin.

According to an internal memo reviewed by The New York Times, the court system administrator recently notified officials from the Department of Justice, court clerks, and the Chief Justice of the Federal Court that "persistent and experienced cyber threat actors have recently stolen sealed records.

The court system administrator also suggested that these officials quickly delete the most sensitive files in the system.
