LulzSec Strikes Again, Hits Bethesda Softworks And US Senate

Coverage Type: 

Having been hinting about it via Twitter all day, the hacker group LulzSec made good on its promise to release data taken from gaming publisher Bethesda Softworks, in a message posted to Pastebin. It then added a second file to its release: A server configuration file for the servers used on the US Senate’s Web site. No sensitive information was released in that message, though it’s clear from the file that it was taken from US Senate servers and indicates the group has somehow penetrated that system.
