The United States Energy department, according to BBC, confirmed this morning that it was hit with a massive hack. Some have already begun to call the data breach, which also hit tech-giant Microsoft, one of the biggest cyber threats in history. Researchers have begun to call the breach Sunburst.


The Energy department is part of a group of governmental departments that were also hit by the breach, which many officials believe to be part of a campaign by the Russian government, reported NBC News. Investigation of the exact circumstances of the attack are still ongoing, said the New York Times.
