Hackers published the second part of the athletes doping tests
The World Anti-Doping Agency confirmed the authenticity of the next portion of documents uploaded to the network by the hacker group Fancy Bears. WADA again accused of hacking hackers from Russia.
According to a message on the WADA website, “Russian hackers published confidential data of 25 athletes from 8 countries, stolen from the ADAMS system.” The ADAMS system records all results of athletes' doping tests.
However, there is no evidence that athletes violated any rules.
“WADA recognizes that this criminal attack, which recklessly exposed the personal information of 29 athletes, will cause serious distress to athletes who competed at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro,” he said.
The documents obtained from the database contain the names of the athletes in whose doping samples at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro were found illegal drugs.
In particular, the list includes a representative of the Russian Olympic team - silver medalist of the Games, boxer Misha Aloyan. According to hackers, on August 21, tuaminoheptane, a drug considered a stimulant, was detected in his body.
In addition to Aloyan, the second part of the list includes 10 American, British 5 and German 5 athletes, as well as a representative from Denmark, Poland, the Czech Republic and Romania for 1.
The head of the American Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), Travis Tygart, said that:
“In each of these situations, the athletes did the right thing, in accordance with global rules for obtaining approval for the use of necessary drugs.”
WADA says the ADAMS hack is an attempt to undermine confidence in the global anti-doping system.
The head of the agency, Olivier Niggli, said that he has no doubt that this hack is a response to the report published by WADA on the use of doping by Russian athletes.
The day before, Vladimir Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov said that there was “no question of the involvement of the Russian authorities in the hack.”
As FoeumDaily wrote earlier, hackers who call themselves the Fancy Bear group, announced the about hacking into the computer systems of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and obtaining documents proving the use of doping by American athletes.
