McAfee: Hackers Faked Locations In DNC Hack

Cyber Security expert and founder of the anti-virus software McAfee, and MGT Capital Investments CEO John McAfee firmly believes Russia wasn’t involved in the Democratic National Committee, hereinafter DNC, hack.

According to the Joint Analysis Report released by the FBI, the group of cyber criminals that allegedly hacked the DNC used various locations apart from Russia to breach the DNC’s servers. In fact, the majority of IP addresses listed in the report were traced all over the world outside of Russia.
 
 
By the variety of IP address traces alone, McAfee states that the group of hackers faked their location and eliminated any branches of data that could have linked back to them. It is more likely that a third party organization or group initiated the attack to create controversy involving the Russian government.
 
According to McAfee said in an interview with Larry King, “If I was the Chinese and I wanted to make it look like the Russians did it, I would use the Russian language within the code, I would use Russian techniques of breaking into the organization. There simply is no way to assign a source for any attack.”
