U.S. intelligence agencies had for 2011231 year cyber attack directed against electronic networks of foreign countries, including Russia, China, Iran and North Korea, said on the night of Saturday's Washington Post newspaper citing documents declassified ex-CIA officer Edward Snowden. Fugitive U.S. intelligence officer Snowden previously declassified documents revealing the details of the budget of the U.S. intelligence community. According to these documents, 652 million was allocated in the last years of the U.S. budget for the organization of penetration into foreign networks in order to take them under the control of a secret U.S. intelligence services. in the budget including the introduction of hidden assets tracking networks and launch malicious programs on computers, routers, and security across the whole world. The documents say that in 2011 was able to realize an operation 231 three quarters of which were directed against the most important goals in China, Iran, North Korea and Russia. Others details in the documents are given. The New York Times earlier quoted sources in the administration and the U.S. intelligence community wrote that information on large-scale programs of surveillance of U.S. intelligence, which extended Snowden, plans violated the U.S. National Security Agency for a dramatic expansion of electronic counter-intelligence. director Gen. Keith Alexander, NSA proposed the creation of a system to intercept cyber attacks aimed at infrastructure dollars. system could also intercept attempts to compromise systems companies and stealing commercial secrets. This NSA was going to scan and track a lot more than 1.6% of world traffic, which according to the agency, it passes through the channels now. At a meeting Alexander said he can not defend the country until they take control of all computer networks. According to the documents published by the Brazilian media, the level of monitoring Russia - as well as for Brazil, Mexico, France and Australia - was "average", while the biggest telecommunications interception was carried out in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Iraq. President of Russia Vladimir Putin: "The fact that the Allies would overhear each other - it is not our business. Let them doing what they want. This information is from Mr. Snowden, from what I understand. This information is nothing about trying to listen to Russian official representatives not. I do not rule out that this is possible. Such evidence we ourselves used to be. "" Snowden had disappeared from view, but his legacy lives on, "columnist Michael Rostov," What we said detention partner to undertake the work of the journalist Snowden British newspaper "The Guardian" in London's Heathrow airport? From my point of view, at least that's what, "Snowden's case" each week allows us to better understand the world in which we live. It turns out: the "fourth power" in Britain, too, is not omnipotent? When it comes to the vital geopolitical interests of the senior partner of London Washington, the intelligence agencies still more important and more important? Frankly, I have no answers yet to these questions. But I do not doubt that we will soon get the answers - thanks to the "case of Snowden."
