As we reported earlier, Foreign Ministry of Norway found Russia’s involvement in hacking the emails of members of the Norwegian parliament Storting in August, during which a data leak had occurred.

On August 24, Storting announced a data leak in its e-mail systems. It is a serious incident affecting our most important democratic institution. Security and intelligence services are working closely on a national settlement of the incident. According to the government’s information base, we believe that Russia is behind this activity,” the statement said.
