People were able to hack into the government email and send out what looked like to be a christmas letter from the president Obama, after this they were able to hack and steel some data from the government. Now authorities are trying to build more protection on and improve the technology systems. They used a card that had a link to built into the christmas tree and when they clicked on it. The newly opened program would take passwords fromt the computer. The email stole some frederal authority information.
I think that it is pretty scary that people are able to hack into the governments system. If they are able to get into a security system that large everday people should be worried about privacy on their own. I will say that the hacker was smart by using the holliday to their advantage and use the presidents name because they would be lured into seeing something he would want to them. I also think that for how much our technology is advancing it will be nearly impossible to keep systems up to date in which they will keep people from breaking in and stealing information.
