The Pentagon Gets Email System Hacked?

CNN Reported Thursday afternoon that the Pentagon confirmed that their email system got hacked. The Pentagon emphasizes that breach occurred on an unclassified system that primarily handles "routine email" involving administrative type email.

Nothing was said about the depth of the attacks or if they even figured out who did it.

As of Thursday, the email service was yet to be fully restored. This recent attack affected about 1500 users of the system.

Wow, to think that this could happen at the pentagon. This must have been a very determined hacker. Kind of makes you wonder how secure thing really are.
