A law enforcement source said that the examination of the equipment seized from the members of the Lurk hacker group did not reveal traces of attacks on the servers of the American government. During the court session, hacker Konstantin Kozlovsky, who is being held as one of the defendants in the case of the Lurk hacker group, declared his involvement in hacking the servers of the Democratic Party of the USA, as well as in hacking Hillary Clinton’s mail. 

However, the examination showed that this is not the case. “The examination was carried out by the security forces together with the leading companies in the field of information security in Russia, all seized equipment, media, communications were checked. No evidence of attacks on the U.S. government was found. Also, the group members did not discuss it in the seized correspondence,” the source said.
