700 US Govt staff details hacked

Posted on May 3, 2012 by Dissent

Although recent arrests cut down on the number of hacks and data dumps I’m seeing posted online, they haven’t eliminated them altogether.  The attack on the International Police Association – International Administration Center, reported last week, was the type of attack we’ve seen in the past. And now this one on NASA’s Glenn Research Center:

Home address and telephone numbers of more than 700 US Government staff were stolen in a string of hacks and published online.

Seven government agencies were breached in the attacks in which adminstrative credentials and some sensitive data were also published online.

Affected organisations include the US military and Civil Air Patrol, the French Ministry of Defence and the European Space Agency.

The affected staff details were stolen from NASA’s Glenn Research Centre.
