Windows-based machines at U.S. Marshals Service thought to be hit by Neeris worm -- By John Fontana and Carolyn Duffy Marsan, Network World  05/21/2009

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Malware Wednesday crippled Windows-based computer systems at the U.S. Marshals Service, which hunts federal fugitives and operates the country's witness protection program, knocking the agency's network offline.
The agency's press office confirmed it was having network problems and that its e-mail system was down this morning, but it was unclear if the outage extended across the entire network.
Per government regulations,  agencies are required to report security incidents to the US-Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT). The agency was running desktop malware software, but it had not been updated for more than three years even though the agency had paid for upgrades to newer versions that protect against Neeris. The U.S. Marshals Service has approximately 4,901 employees, which includes 94 U.S. marshals and 3,324 deputy U.S. marshals and criminal investigators. The agency's fiscal 2008 budget was $864 million.

PS - Guess which approach costs less over time!? 

As if the Marshal's service incident wasn't enough -- the Wall Street Journal reported June 13th ("Alleged Hacking-Terror Effort Thwarted") on arrests & indictments Friday in the US and Italy.

 

In brief - walk-in call centers who sell international calling for cash hacked into many vulnerable PBXs in the US, diverting unused #s to offsite destinations, then sold the stolen minutes.

 

Most of the calls went to Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Egypt, and India. The illegal profits funded alleged terror activities. And who was one of the prime targets of theft? The US Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
