TalkTalk hack. Police arrest fourth person, aged 16 years old

Metropolitan Police have arrested a fourth person in connection with the high profile TalkTalk hack. A 16-year-old boy was arrested at an address in Norwich on suspicion of committing offences under the Computer Misuse Act. The arrest follows the previous arrests of a boy in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, and a man in Staffordshire. TalkTalk is believed to have suffered from a website outage involving a denial-of-service attack which took its website offline on 21 October. The subsequent evening the firm revealed that hackers had managed to steal the personal information of customers seemingly through an elementary SQL injection attack.”]
