The State of Israel performed a huge service for the United States; when Russian government hackers searched computers around the world for the code names of American intelligence programs, Israeli officials managed to hack into the Russian network in 2014 and report the threat to the United States. They gave the National Security Agency (NSA) screenshots and other documentation to prove their claims were true.
Israel discovered the threat when a search tool from Russia’s Kaspersky Lab, used by 400 million people around the world as well as officials at some two dozen American government agencies, including the State Department, the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Justice Department, Treasury Department and the Army, Navy and Air Force, was busy stealing classified documents from a National Security Agency employee who left them on his home computer.
