两大总统候选人均陷“邮件门”？

美国大选真是不到最后一刻，悬念便一直都在。

希拉里因为FBI重新调查邮件服务器一事再度深陷大选危机，本该静观好戏的特朗普日前也被指设立邮件服务器和俄罗斯秘密联系，难道特朗普也要身陷“邮件门”了？

In an election season where cybersecurity has been a major issue — from Hillary Clinton’s email server to the hacks, believed to be tied to Russia, that compromised her campaign chairman and the Democratic National Committee — a group of computer scientists stumbled upon evidence possibly connecting a Donald Trump mail server to a separate server belonging to Russia’s Alfa Bank. The discovery, reported by Slate, came just as the New York Times reported that the FBI found no direct link between the Trump Organization and the Russian government.

前阵子希拉里的邮件服务器被黑客攻破，让她的竞选主席和民主党全国委员会陷入尴尬境地，导致网络安全问题成了本次美国大选的一大关注点。据认为入侵服务器的黑客行动与俄罗斯有关。据《Slate》杂志报道，近日一群电脑科学家无意间发现了特朗普的邮件服务器可能与俄罗斯阿尔法银行的一个独立服务器相连接的证据。而就在此前《纽约时报》刚报道称美国联邦调查局没有发现特朗普组织与俄罗斯政府之间存在直接联系。

Following revelations about the DNC hacks over the summer, a group of computer scientists wanted to look into whether the Trump campaign had been similarly compromised by hackers.

就在今夏曝出民主党全国委员会被黑的丑闻后，一群电脑科学家想调查一下特朗普的竞选活动是否也同样遭到黑客的攻击。

“We wanted to help defend both campaigns, because we wanted to preserve the integrity of the election,” one of the cybersecurity experts told Slate’s Franklin Foer upon condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of his work.

其中一位网络安全专家告诉《Slate》杂志的富兰克林•弗尔说，“我们想帮助守卫竞选双方的网络安全，因为我们想保持大选的公正性。”因为他工作性质的关系，这位专家没有透露自己的名字。

In the act of trying to uncover any malware that might be affecting Trump servers, a scientist who asked to be referred to by the pseudonym “Tea Leaves” detected what he thought was Russian-originating malware that had the destination domain “Trump” in its name.

为了捕获可能影响特朗普服务器的任何恶意软件，一位化名为“茶叶”的科学家探查到他认为是源于俄罗斯的恶意软件，软件目标域名包含“特朗普”。

Tea Leaves ended up finding that the Alfa Bank, a Moscow-based financial institution whose leaders have ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin, had a server that was “irregularly pinging” a server registered to the New York-based Trump Organization.

“茶叶”最后发现阿尔法银行是一家总部在莫斯科的金融机构，它的高管们与俄罗斯总统普京有联系，而且该银行有一个服务器与总部在纽约的特朗普组织注册的一个服务器之间有“不规则的共振”。

Computer logs indicate there were thousands of digital contacts. “The logs suggested that Trump and Alfa had configured something like a digital hotline connecting the two entities, shutting out the rest of the world, and designed to obscure its own existence,” Foer writes.

电脑日志显示，这两个服务器间有数千条数据联系。弗尔写道：“日志显示，特朗普和阿尔法银行已经安装了某种类似于数据热线的东西，将两台服务器连在一起，这样便可以把世界上的其他所有人屏蔽出去，不让人发现任何痕迹。”

But according to the latest report, no clear evidence of wrongdoing was found.

不过，根据最新报道，并没有发现特朗普有不正当邮件往来的任何确切证据。

A US cybersecurity firm hired by a Russian bank to investigate allegations of a secret line of communication with the Trump Organization said on Tuesday there was no evidence so far of substantive contact, email or financial links.

一家俄罗斯银行雇佣了一个美国网络安全公司去调查与特朗普组织有联系的这条秘密线路，并于周二表示到目前为止尚未发现任何表明二者有实质接触、邮件往来或经济联系的证据。

Mandiant, which is owned by the California-based company FireEye, said it examined internet server logs presented to the bank by media organisations investigating the link and found nothing suspicious.

这家公司名叫Mandiant，隶属于总部位于加利福尼亚州的火眼公司。Mandiant公司表示它查看了调查这一线路的媒体机构呈给银行的网络服务器日志，没有发现任何可疑的证据。

两位总统候选人，你更支持谁呢？
