Hackers Stole Information From IAEA Servers

Posted by Unknown on from the fjear-me-i-have-your-email-address dept.

porsche911 writes "A hacker group called 'Parastoo' have broken into an International Atomic Energy Agency computer and released details of more than 100 IAEA experts. They are asking the experts to criticize Israel's nuclear arsenal (English translation)." The IAEA confirms the breach happened, but that it was of a decommissioned server. The statement from Parastoo courtesy of Cryptome.

    Then oh my god you guys, Israel will have so much egg on its face. They won't be able to be seen in public any more. It'd be, like, a big deal. How could the IAEA betray them like that without provocation? They were friends!

    But actually, they're of the opinion that Iranian nuclear scientists have been getting attacked lately, and they want that to stop. The Israel-criticizing was lower on the priority list. I have no idea how the summary missed this.

    I misread that as "Hackers Stole Information From IKEA Servers". I was worried there for a moment.
