The targeted think tanks included the International Republican Institute, whose board members include Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona, and the Hudson Institute, according to Microsoft. The International Republican Institute confirmed in a statement on its website that it had been targeted. Microsoft said it had no evidence the hackers succeeded in compromising any user credentials or stole any data. Russian government officials rejected the Microsoft allegations and said there was no evidence to support them. Microsoft said it would offer enhanced security to US political parties, candidates, and campaigns that use its Office 365 software.
