Clarke: Terrorist Organizations May Have Penetrated Gov Computers

February 14, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - The nation's top cybersecurity sleuth
said yesterday terrorists have hacked into government computers and may
have left "trapdoors" so they can return and wreak havoc. Security
expert Richard Clarke also refused to rule out launching a military
strike against any nation - or group like Hamas, Hezbollah or al Qaeda -
that hacks into America's government or private-sector computer
networks.

"Terrorist organizations may have already been successful in penetrating
our networks - they may have created trapdoors. We may not even know
about it," Clarke told Congress yesterday. After the hearing, Clarke
said the trapdoor problem could have affected any government agency,
from the Pentagon to the Agriculture Department.
