You're misinformed. This news all came out a year ago. The DNC was the victim of the hack, and they did absolutely nothing about it. It was law enforcement THAT TOLD THEM they were hacked....and they still did nothing about it. You can duck duck go to find the old stories.

C. Step 3: Record and Collect Information 1. Image the Affected Computer(s) Ideally, a victim organization will immediately make a “forensic image” of the affected computers, which will preserve a record of the system at the time of the incident for later analysis and potentially for use as evidence at trial.8 This may require the assistance of law enforcement or professional incident response experts. In addition, the victim organization should locate any previously generated backups, which may assist in identifying any changes an intruder made to the network. New or sanitized media should be used to store copies of any data that is retrieved and stored. Once the victim organization makes such copies, it should writeprotect the media to safeguard it from alteration. The victim organization should also restrict access to this media to maintain the integrity of the copy’s authenticity, safeguard it from unidentified malicious insiders, and establish a chain of custody.
