6Foot2 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Link: BBC News - US Centcom Twitter account 'hacked by Islamic State' The twitter account is now suspended. The hackers created posts which looked as if they probably have contained confidential/sensitive information. How current that information is: Who knows? But hopefully the damage is minimal. Confidential information may also have been posted on PasteBin. Again not posting links to that information here. The rhetoric that you might expect to accompany such an attack from individuals like this is present: Statements about Allah, Muhammad, and Sharia Law.

elsiegee40 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I think you should have put "hacked"... More than likely a password again 1

free780 Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 It'll be interesting to know if they had 2 factor authentication enabled.
