U.S. CENTCOM Twitter feed compromised by ‘Cyber Jihadists’

The official Twitter account for the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) was compromised Monday afternoon by attackers claiming to support the terrorist group ISIS. In a series of messages posted to the compromised account, the attackers published images of documents, which were allegedly taken from hijacked mobile devices. The person(s) claiming responsibility for the attack later posted a warning to American soldiers on Pastebin, that ISIS was already in their PCs, and that the Pentagon networks were hacked. Many of the leaked documents are PDF files, which are archives of PowerPoint presentations and speech drafts.”]
