Duplicate RSA Keys Enable Lockheed Martin Network Intrusion

An anonymous reader writes "Unknown hackers have broken into the security networks of Lockheed Martin Corp and several other US military contractors, a source with direct knowledge of the attacks told Reuters. They breached security systems designed to keep out intruders by creating duplicates to 'SecurID' electronic keys from EMC Corp's RSA security division, said the person who was not authorized to publicly discuss the matter."

If you're going to be racist, then please be appropriately racist. The problem, as it pertains to this discussion, is not Africans. The problem is the ever-increasing numbers of Indians, Chinese, and Middle-eastern visa hires with fraudulent paperwork and checkered pasts; who retain loyalty to their budding superpower motherlands.

A high-value target like the American military industrial complex gets what it deserves when it's willing to hire Jihad Jims and Stinky Shivs rather than pony up the extra pennies to hire real blonde-haired, blue-eyed, red-blooded Americans.
