Florida servers compromised by overseas hackers, officials say
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida officials are acknowledging that state servers appear to have been compromised by overseas hackers who gained entry by imbedding malicious code into networking software. Two Florida officials said Friday that the hackers apparently infiltrated systems for the Agency for Healthcare Administration and other agencies. The officials have knowledge of the matter but were not authorized to speak publicly about it. They say it’s unclear what information the hackers may have taken. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said late Friday that Russia was “pretty clearly” behind the cyberattack against the United States.
