Democratic National Committee Hack

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) Hack refers to the cyberattack in 2016 where hackers, believed to be linked to Russia, infiltrated the computer networks of the Democratic Party’s main organization. They accessed sensitive emails and internal communications, which were later leaked publicly. This breach aimed to influence the U.S. presidential election by damaging the reputation of Democratic candidates and swaying public opinion. The incident highlighted vulnerabilities in political cybersecurity and raised concerns about foreign interference in democratic processes.
