NSA Says Site Was Not Hacked

Posted by | October 26, 2013 17:01 | Filed under: Top Stories


The National Security Agency’s site was down Friday amid reports it had been hacked, but the agency says it was an internal error, not a hack job.

After the website went dark, a Twitter account affiliated with the hacker group Anonymous appeared to claim responsibility.

A tweet from the handle @AnonyOps read, “Aww don’t panic about nsa.gov being down. They have a backup copy of the internet.”

There is no evidence that any information or data has been stolen from NSA’s network, and it is not clear what caused the outage, The Wall Street Journal reported.
