British Politicians Hacked Coverage

F-Secure teamed up with ethical hacking firm Mandalorian and investigative journalist Peter Warren to conduct a little experiment that could highlight the risks that people (including politicians) take when they use public Wi-Fi. The politicians, deliberately selected from the most powerful chambers in UK politics, were Rt. Hon. David Davis MP,Mary Honeyball MEP, and Lord Strasburger. The exercise was carried out with the permission of the politicians who, despite holding important positions within the different parliaments, admitted that they had received no formal training or information about the relative ease with which computers can be breached. Passwords and login details for different services were also easily obtained.”]
