Cyber Vandals Breach Senate Website

• http://slatest.slate.com/
 

The U.S. Senate over the weekend became the latest target of a loosely organized hacker group that has been eager to flex its muscles in a show of technological force.

 

The group, which calls itself Lulz Security, broke into a public portion of the Senate website but did not reach behind a firewall to access more sensitive information on the network, the Senate’s Sergeant at Arms Office confirmed Monday, Reuters reports.

 

Authorities said that the hack had not compromised any individual senator’s information or any other sensitive data, but that they would nonetheless launch a full review of the website.
