Intrusion!

This is coolbert:

Here with a most recent instance of cyberwarfare? One of the two existential threats to the United States as acknowledged by Admiral Mullen.

The target this time the computers of the International Monetary Fund. Admiral Mullen indeed did have this specific incident in mind during that Charlie Rose interview?

"Massive IMF cyberattack ‘was state-backed’, say sources"

"A massive and sophisticated cyberattack that targeted the computer systems of the International Monetary Fund last month was 'linked to a foreign government', according to sources familiar with the incident. The IMF, an international institution which oversees financial crises around the world, revealed the security breach in an internal email sent last week, but has yet to make a public announcement about the incident."

This may or may not be, according to what "expert" you speak to, an instance of cyberwarfare. This is more of a "fishing expedition", gathering data, etc. NOT denial of the computers [DoS] or deliberate intrusion with the intent to do damage?
