The web of the American army (www.army.mil) was the goal of hackers last week. The pirates took advantage of the weekend to access the web and modify it completely. To solve what the pirates destroyed by the work of an evening, the US army technicians took all morning. According to the army, the Cyber Pirates did not find access to secret areas, but despite this they have shown their concern.

To prevent the situation from being repeated again, the army has taken a series of measures, but in order not to give clues to the pirates, the measures taken were not reported.
