RSA's Servers Breached. SecureID code leaked(?)

[furrbear]

Oh boy. Will this be ugly. From SlashDot:

"EMC subsidiary RSA was the victim of 'an extremely sophisticated cyber attack' which resulted in the possible theft of the two-factor code used by their SecurID products." The Boston Herald has a short article on the intrusion.

Update: 03/17 23:54 GMT: Slashdot Reader rmogull adds "With all the hype that's sure the explode over this one, we decided to do a quick write-up to separate fact from speculation."

Tech-types will want to read the link in the update.

I'm amazed at how much this story has been buried. :P I mentioned it at work and I was given shrugs. I had to hold up someone's RSA token and go "This? It's worthless now." and they just shrugged again.

Oi!
