The world's main anti-doping regulator says one of its principal databases has been attacked by a Russian hacking group linked to other notorious computer hacks, including that of the U.S. Democratic Party.
The agency, known as WADA, said on Sept. 13 that the database, which contains a confidential listing of medical submissions made by athletes around the world, had been accessed by a group known as Fancy Bear, and some of the information had already been posted to the Internet.
