The U.S. Space and Naval Ware Systems Command was defaced
Monday morning, with presumably legitimate screenshots of
database files from a major airline and bank.
"This situation proves that we are all still vulnerable even after
9/11," the DeceptiveDuo posted on their defacement. "Tighten the
security before a foreign attack forces you to. At a time like this,
we cannot risk the possibility of compromise by a foreign enemy,"
the Web page statement read.
MIDWEST EXPRESS ACCOUNTS COMPROMISED
It also appears the e-mail addresses and full names of Midwest
Express customers have been compromised with the screenshot,
which one security expert said, "seemed legitimate, and not just a
manipulated image map."
Lisa Bailey, Midwest Express spokesperson, said the two hackers
gained access to its Web-based user profile database, an area that
lets customers update their personal information via a supposedly
secure connection.
"Frankly, we're not sure how they got into it," Bailey told
InternetNews.com. "We hired consultants two weeks ago to go
over our entire operations, but they hadn't gotten to that (part) yet.
