Hackers tapped into Syrian opposition’s battle plans

Syrian opposition leaders lost gigabytes of secret communications and battlefield plans to hackers. 7.7GB of material was stolen, including 64 Skype databases, 31,107 conversations, 12,356 contacts and 240,381 messages. Security firm FireEye stumbled across a server containing the documents and files last fall. It was unclear if Assad’s regime was behind the campaign, but the operation appears to have been highly effective, the firm says. The server that FireEye found the file on was not password protected and just sitting open on the Internet.”]
