Thanks to the availability of automated tools that can wreak havoc on the Web, investigators there are seeing increasing reports of malicious hacking. The FBI is also seeing rampant insider hacking, which accounts for 60% to 80% of corporate computer crimes, according to consultants such as Gartner Group. ========================================================================= http://interactive.wsj.com/articles/SB993588688215931869.htm June 27, 2001 Net Espionage Rekindles Tensions As U.S. Tries to Identify Hackers By TED BRIDIS Staff Reporter of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL WASHINGTON -- Fears of Cold War tensions are finding new life in cyberspace, as the threat of Internet espionage shifts the nuclear-age doctrine of "mutually assured destruction" to that of mutually assured disruption. In one long-running operation, the subject of a U.S. spy investigation dubbed "Storm Cloud," hackers traced back to Russia were found to have been quietly downloading millions of pages of sensitive data, including one colonel's entire e-mail inbox. During three years, most recently in April, government computer operators have watched -- often helplessly -- as reams of electronic documents flowed from Defense Department computers, among others. The heist is "equivalent to a stack of printed copier paper three times the height of the Washington Monument," says Air Force Maj. Gen. Bruce Wright of the Air Intelligence Agency. =========================================================================== Interesting piece on the Web... http://www.doctrine.quantico.usmc.mil/mcwp/view/mcwp336/mcwp336.pdf ------------------ http://all.net/ Your use of Yahoo!
