International Monetary Fund Hacked
Washington, D.C. based International Monetary Fund (IMF) was the target of a
hacking attack, according to this report. The IMF provides financial-aid to countries facing emergency balance-of-payments problems and reportedly shut down their computers for several days. Oops.
The IMF's network link to the World Bank, the world's largest anti-poverty agency, was also temporarily severed, a move that IMF spokesman Bill Murray described as a "precaution." But IMF officials strenuously deny that any lockdown of its computers took place, and insist that no important or sensitive financial information had been affected.
