Russia denies 'feeble' US, UK charges of internet tampering
Russia is denying charges from the United States and Britain that its agents have planted malware on key internet equipment to spy on rivals, steal trade secrets and potentially launch cyberattacks.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the FBI and the U.K.'s National Cyber Security Centre lodged the accusation Monday. They said Russian agents have targeted routers and other networking equipment at "government and private-sector organizations," other providers of "critical infrastructure" and internet service providers.
