A Russian hacking group used spearphishing to steal the Gmail login
credentials of Hillary Clinton campaign staff, and that may be how campaign
emails now being released were stolen, according to Secure Works.
The attack targeted 108 hillaryclinton.com email addresses, and was carried
out by a Russian group called Threat Group-4127 (TG-4127), according to
Secure Works’ Counter Threat Unit (CTU) blog.
CTU can’t directly link the spearphishing operation against the Clinton
campaign with the hack of Democratic National Committee emails revealed
June 14, but “CTU researchers suspect that TG-4127 used the spearphishing
emails or similar techniques to gain an initial foothold in the DNC
network. “
