The U.S. Justice Department says it has disrupted a long-running Russian cyberespionage campaign that stole sensitive information from computer networks in dozens of countries. Prosecutors on May 9 linked the spying operation to a unit of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) and accused the hackers of stealing documents from hundreds of computer systems belonging to governments of NATO members and other targets of interest to the Kremlin.
