World Bank, Under Robert Zoellick, Hacker Attempts For A Year Adds To Fear

World Bank Under Cyber Siege in 'Unprecedented Crisis'


Friday, October 10, 2008


The World Bank Group's computer network — one of the largest repositories of sensitive data about the economies of every nation — has been raided repeatedly by outsiders for more than a year, FOX News has learned.


It is still not known how much information was stolen. But sources inside the bank confirm that servers in the institution's highly-restricted treasury unit were deeply penetrated with spy software last April. Invaders also had full access to the rest of the bank's network for nearly a month in June and July.
