US officials have said Obama has not yet finalised actions, but has discussed economic sanctions, indictments and the possibility of embarrassing Russian officials and oligarchs by leaking information on Russian diplomats.
However, Obama is said to be considering a series of cowardly attacks because he does not want to escalate the current cyber conflict.
An anonymous official claimed Obama has already ruled out an attack which involves interfering with Russian internet messaging platforms.
The outgoing President is under pressure to launch a provocative attack, because throughout his eight year reign, America has experienced a wave of government attacks from China, North Korea and Iran.
Obama is trying to “parallel what the Russians did”, according to a US official source, “but it is impossible to prove”, he added.
