“The President, not long ago, trained the knowledge group to lead a full audit of the example of vindictive digital action identified with our presidential decision cycle,” White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz told correspondents.

Obama has asked for this report be finished and submitted to him before the end of his term, he said. Schultz said in 2008, there were interruptions into both the Obama and McCain crusades. There have not been any prominent scenes in 2012.

But rather the President requested that do a reversal, with what they know now, to ensure that they are utilizing each apparatus conceivable as a method for due constancy, he said and afterward, obviously, in 2016, our knowledge group established that there was malevolent digital movement proposed to meddle with our races.

In the high certainty evaluation that was discharged this past October, the knowledge group made clear this was movement coordinated by the most elevated amounts of the Russian government,” Schultz said.

The audit, Schultz said, would be finished by the insight group. We will make open as much as we can. Clearly, you can envision a report like this will contain exceptionally touchy and even grouped data, maybe, so when that report is submitted will investigate, he said.

So this will put that movement in a more prominent setting. That will take a gander at the example of this event from remote performing artists, dating the distance back to 2008,” Schultz said. He said the President needed this done under his supervision since he considers it important.
