Lockheed Martin Suspends Remote Access After Network ‘Intrusion’
The Register reports Lockheed Martin has reportedly suspended remote access to email and corporate apps following the discovery of a network intrusion that may be linked to the high-profile breach against RSA earlier this year. Technology blogger Robert Cringely reports that Lockheed recently detected the suspected breach. He adds that new tokens will be issued to an estimated 100,000 personnel before remote access is restored, a process likely to take at least a week. The incident involves the use of SecurID tokens from RSA to log into accounts, and may be tied to, or at least use information extracted from, an attack on RSA Security’s systems back in March.
