Intel Acknowledges January Breach
--Intel Acknowledges January Breach
(February 23, 2010)
Intel has acknowledged in a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing that it was targeted by a "sophisticated" attack in January. The disclosure was made in a section of the filing that describes incidents and circumstances that could potentially have adverse effects on the company's bottom line. An Intel spokesperson says that while the attack occurred around the same time as the attacks against Google and other US companies, there is no hard evidence linking the Intel attack to the others. He also said that attackers attempt to gain access to Intel's systems on a "very regular" basis.
