Washington: Hackers with the loose-knit group Anonymous said on Friday they had broken into the network of US government contractor Mantech International Corp and posted some NATO-related correspondence online.
Anonymous, tweeting as AnonymousIRC, offered the correspondence between Mantech and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as proof of the breach. Two involve NATO contracting offices, and one discusses deploying staffers to an unnamed "NATO Theatre of Operations" for what appears to be tech services. Mantech, which claims the US Defence, State and Justice Departments among its clients, declined to comment. It offers cyber security among its services.
HackerZ associated with Lulz Security and Anomymous have claimed responsibility for cyber attacks on the US Central Intelligence Agency, the US Senate, Sony Corp websites and the website of Murdoch's British newspaper group, News International, among others. Authorities made some arrests in connection with the breaches, including a teenager detained at a house in the remote Shetland Islands, off Scotland's northeast coast. There have also been other arrests in Britain and in the United States. The group has urged supporters to boycott eBay Inc's PayPal electronic payment service, or to close existing accounts. It has previously attacked PayPal to show opposition to the service's refusal to process payments to WikiLeaks, the website founded by Julian Assange that published copies of secret US government diplomatic cables.
