Hacker Group Targets CIA Website 
---------------------------------



An online hacker group is claiming responsibility for briefly taking
down the CIA’s website. On Wednesday, the group Lulz Sec announced it
had jammed the CIA homepage for about two hours. Lulz Sec has claimed
responsibility for hacks on websites targeting PBS, Sony, the U.S.
Senate, and the Atlanta chapter of Infra Gard, a partnership between the
FBI and the private sector that shares sensitive national security
information.
