Iranian hackers infiltrated 2020 election results website, confirms general.

Iranian hackers, believed to be part of the group "Pioneer Kitten," breached a U.S. city's website ahead of the 2020 election with the possible intention of altering unofficial vote counts, according to U.S. Army Maj. Gen. William J. Hartman. The incident is separate from other allegations of Iranian election interference attempts. The hackers were removed before any harm could be done, and the specific city's website was not disclosed. Election security experts have long warned that election-night reporting websites can be targets for attack.
