YOU'VE BEEN HACKED BY ISLAMIC MILITANTS

摘要

A year ago, hackers claiming to be Islamic militants breached the Warsaw Stock Exchange, protesting Poland's support for a bombing campaign against Islamic State. The attack shut the exchange's website for about two hours, and the hackers made off with some data and posted dozens of client logins on the code-sharing site Pastebin. "It's beginning," they wrote on Pastebin. "To be continued! AllahuAkbar!" Except the infiltrators weren't Islamic militants at all-they were cyber experts with ties to the Russian government, according to three people familiar with the subsequent Polish investigation. Within NATO, Poland has been a loud advocate for sanctions against Russia's moves in eastern Ukraine, and investigators view the hack as a brushback maneuver, the people say. The Warsaw Stock Exchange said in a statement that its trading platform wasn't affected by the attack.
