Image caption<\/span> A Russian hacking group known as Fancy Bear is accused of trying to disrupt the US midterm elections <\/span> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Russian attempts to launch cyber-attacks against US conservative groups have been thwarted, Microsoft says.<\/p>\n

The software company said Russian hackers had tried to steal data<\/a> from political organisations, including the International Republican Institute and the Hudson Institute think tanks.<\/p>\n

But they had been thwarted when its security staff had won control of six net domains mimicking their websites.<\/p>\n

Microsoft said the Fancy Bear hacking group had been behind the attacks.<\/p>\n

Domain control<\/h2>\n

“We’re concerned that these and other attempts pose security threats to a broadening array of groups connected with both American political parties in the run-up to the 2018 elections,” Microsoft said in its blog detailing its work.<\/p>\n

The thwarted attack was likely the start of a “spear phishing” campaign, said Microsoft. This would involve tricking people into visiting the mimicked domains allowing the Fancy Bear group to see and steal login information that people use. <\/p>\n

As well as the two think-tanks, the domains seized were associated with several Senate offices and services. One domain sought to mimic Microsoft’s Office 365 online service.<\/p>\n

Russia has denied Microsoft’s allegations that it targeted the right-wing think-tanks. <\/p>\n

President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow was “unaware” of any attempted interference by Russia-linked hackers in the US mid-term elections.<\/p>\n

“[Our] reaction is traditional,” he told the Interfax news agency. “We are unaware what kind of hackers they refer to, we do not know what this interference entails.” <\/p>\n

BBC Monitoring reported him as adding: “We do not understand whom exactly it concerns, what the evidence is and what such conclusions are based on. We have no such information.”<\/p>\n

He said: “We hear confirmation from America that there was no meddling in the election.”<\/p>\n

Spying charges<\/h2>\n

The New York Times suggested<\/a> that the two think tanks were targeted because they were former supporters of President Trump but were now foes who had called for more sanctions to be imposed on Russia.<\/p>\n

The International Republican Institute’s directors include Senator John McCain and General HR McMaster who was replaced earlier this year as the White House national security adviser.<\/p>\n

IRI president Daniel Twining told the Times that the attacks were consistent with the “campaign of meddling” the Kremlin is known to have indulged in.<\/p>\n

In its blog, Microsoft president Brad Smith said it had grabbed dodgy domains 12 times in two years to shut down 84 websites associated with Fancy Bear.<\/p>\n

It said that, so far, it had no evidence that the domains had been used in any attacks. The domains could have been set up to help a future planned assault.<\/p>\n

Microsoft added that the attack activity seen around the domains “mirrors” what it saw in 2016 in the US and during the 2017 election in France. <\/p>\n

Microsoft’s action comes soon after the US charged 12 Russian intelligence officers with hacking computer networks used by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n
