UK Ministry of Defence: Hackers Have Breached Top Secret Systems / Hackers Hit NASA, Harvard, U.S. Air Force, Others

Shaw, a veteran of the Falklands and Iraq wars, also said the MoD had to be prepared to embrace unconventional and "wacky" ideas if the military wanted to catch up with, and then stay ahead of, rivals in the cybersphere. Getting "kids on the street" to help the military was vital, he said.
