French cybersecurity agency to probe Macron hacking attack

None

PARIS -- France's election campaign commission said Saturday "a significant amount of data" -- and some fake information -- has been leaked on social networks following a hacking attack on centrist Emmanuel Macron's presidential campaign. It urged citizens not to relay the data on social media to protect the integrity of the French vote.

 

France's government cybersecurity agency will investigate the attack, according to a government official who said it appeared to be a "very serious" breach.
