Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, raised concerns about a recent cyberbreach that has compromised vast swaths of the federal government, as well as the security of major corporations, think tanks and other key American institutions.
"It is an extraordinary invasion of our cyberspace," Romney told NBC News' "Meet the Press" Sunday. "I mean, they basically have the capacity to know what we're doing. They even got into the agency that's responsible for our nuclear capacities, for our research with regards to nuclear weaponry."
