After President Obama gave the State of the Union address, 49 congressional websites were hacked by a group called the 'Red Eye Crew' in Brazil. They used explicit words towards President Obama and succeeded a hacking into the GovTrends firewall system, for the second time since August. Because of this, security against web intruders is being strengthened and House officers are considering blocking GovTrends from outside technology vendors. However, if a group of immature but net-savvy kids in Brazil had the ability to hack into our Government's system that was once considered 'secure', could terrorists have just as much opportunity?

so scary. There are recent reports indicating that Chinese hackers were allegedly trying access Google's source code. Could you imagine what would happen if someone planted misinformation into our top search engine? Wow.
