Centcom Social Media Hacked



CNN: CENTCOM Twitter account hacked, suspended

U.S. military social media accounts apparently hacked by Islamic State sympathizers

The real reason pro-ISIS hackers took over CENTCOM's Twitter


Assignment:
1) Find two other examples of "cybervandalism" by the Cyber Caliphate and summarize their actions.
2) On a scale of 1-10, how serious of a threat or how concerned should we be by these acts? Explain.
