Hacker group breaks into Senate website

The U.S. senate's web site was hit this weekend by the hacking group, known as Lulz. The intruders gained access to the server's directory and file structure, the contents of which they published on their own site.

In response, the government started a security review and determined that network security was not compromised and that no user information was exposed.

"The intruder did not gain access into the Senate computer network and was only able to read and determine the directory structure of the files placed on Senate.gov," the Senate's Office of the Sergeant at Arms said yesterday in a statement released to AFP and other news services. "That server is for public access on the public side of the Senate's network firewall, and any files that individual Senate offices place there are intended for public consumption."
