*>>It seems there is more to the RSA intrusion than was made public.*

I was pretty sure of that from the beginning...  I expect them to cough up
more details if the frequency of attacks against their customers increases
OR when they have made a substantial change to the underlying infrastructure
that was attacked earlier this year.


*>>Has anyone read how LM detected the attack?  I'm guessing that their SEIM
alerted to an increase in RSA account lockouts?*

That hasn't been officially disclosed as yet, from what I can tell, but I
imagine that their network and security monitoring tools were key here.
