BBC: Kaspersky Lab is hacked One of the leading anti-virus software providers has revealed that its own systems were recently compromised by hackers. Kaspersky Lab said it believed the attack was designed to spy on its newest technologies. It said the intrusion involved up to three previously unknown techniques. The Russian firm added that it was continuing to carry out checks, but believed it had detected the intrusion at an early stage. Although it acknowledged that the attackers had managed to access some of its files, it said that the data it had seen was "in no way critical to the operation" of its products. "Spying on cybersecurity companies is a very dangerous tendency," said the company's chief executive Eugene Kaspersky. Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov

Lovely to know that the manufacturer with fingerprints on almost every single piece of electronics out there either sprung a leak or knowingly participated.
