Lancaster 25,000 students and 2,500-plus employees personal info hacked ! Lancaster County Schools officials say computer hackers have gotten personal information on the system's 25,000 students and 2,500-plus employees. In a note posted on the school system's website and sent to students and staff, officials said hackers compromised the database sometime in March. The hackers gained access to computers, captured keystrokes, and obtained passwords. That gave them access to the database, which includes names, birthdates, Social Security numbers, addresses and phone numbers. The breach has been fixed, officials said. "We are doing anything we can to prevent this from happening again," Superintendent Gene Moore said. "And we have put new measures in place to better assure that our computers are protected from such attempts."

Anonymous hacker  broke into wind turbine systems ! Claiming revenge for an "illegitimate firing," someone has posted screenshots and other data, apparently showing that he was able to break a 200 megawat wind turbine system owned by NextEra Energy Resources, a subsidiary of Florida Power & Light. The data was posted to the Full Disclossure security mailing list Saturday anonymously, by someone using the name "Bgr R." In the post, he (or she) wrote, "Here comes my revenge for illegitimate firing from Florida Power & Light Company... ain't nothing you can do with it, since your electricity is turned off !!!" In an e-mail interview, Bgr R said he's a former employee who discovered a vulnerability in the company's Cisco security management software that he then used to hack into the SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems used to control the turbines. His motive was to embarrass the company, he said. "I want peopl...

China 's Cyber Hackers Target Western Firms ! Sky News has learnt of the growing threat Western governments and corporations are under from hackers based in China. Cyber crime costs the UK tens of billions of pounds every year. The attacks cannot be traced but I have gained access to some of the country's growing number of hackers to discover just how big a risk they pose: The man I meet is 21, he has no technical training and has moved to Beijing from a small town in southern China. But within minutes of our meeting, he's shown me how he can hack into my email account. A few more clicks of his mouse, and he's stolen my credit card details as I make an online purchase. He says he's a "cyber security expert" - not a hacker - but we can't use his name and he refuses to show his face. I ask him whether he could successfully hack into more carefully guarded computer systems: those of government officials and top companies in the West. "Even...

Truth About Facebook -  CIA, U.S. government - Everything Related ! The Truth about who owns facebook. In todays world of advanced modern technology, there are billions of people that use Internet as a means of communication. The era of Big Brother is upon us. George Orwell predicted it and, now we live it. Every day just walking down the street for a burger, our faces are recorded on numerous camera's. Even whilst waiting for our burgers to burn, our image is being burned elsewhere. Todays society is a paranoid one, and rightly so. We are never really alone. Business' record every keystroke and every action in an employee's day. International Intelligence agencies scan and flag any messages containing certain buzz words. Why? Because, as Mulder warned us (and Sculley) weekly for many years, "The truth is out there!" The question has been raised that "Face-book" has connections with the CIA. Facebook has a resource that any secret intellige...
