Hacktivist group Anonymous has stolen sensitive data in a year-long campaign against government computers, FBI says

Hacktivist group Anonymous has been using a flaw in Adobe Systems' software to launch a year-long campaign against U.S. government computers, according to an FBI memo.
The memo, which was obtained and reported exclusively by news agency Reuters, states that Anonymous was able to create multiple "back doors" to government systems, enabling the group to return repeatedly to steal sensitive data as recently as last month.
