The U.S. Homeland Security Department phone system was hacked, the old fashioned way

The security breach happened in the voice mail system of the Private Branch Exchange (PBX) of FEMA. But don't fret, fellow Americans: Thankfully, the "security" in Homeland Security kicked right in. Oh wait, it didn't: the breach was actually detected by the phone company, who couldn't believe the $12,000 in calls to Middle East countries.



If I didnt have to pay taxes for these clowns, I would think it hilarious.
