NEW YORK (AFP) - – A sophisticated Malaysian cyber bandit hacked into the US Federal Reserve's computers and also stole nearly half a million credit and debit card numbers, US prosecutors in New York said.

Lin Mun Poo, a Malaysian resident and citizen, was arrested on October 21 soon after entering the United States and was indicted by grand jury Thursday, the US attorney's office in Brooklyn said.

He allegedly hacked into the Cleveland, Ohio branch of the Fed, the US central bank, and in separate attacks also stole more than 400,000 card numbers, as well as breaching the defenses of numerous other systems.

Poo, who is being held in pre-trial detention, "made a career of compromising computer servers belonging to financial institutions, defense contractors, and major corporations, among others, and selling or trading the information," the US attorney's office said.

The US Secret Service arrested the 32-year-old a few hours after he flew to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

"Secret Service agents seized his heavily encrypted laptop computer, which contained a massive quantity of financial account data and personal identifying information that he had allegedly obtained by hacking," the prosecutor's office said.

Brian Parr, the head of the Secret Service's New York office, said cyber crimes "not only affect our nation's financial infrastructure, but are also an ongoing threat to our national security."

Among the other alleged hacking by Poo, the Secret Service said he entered a Pentagon contractor's system "potentially compromising highly sensitive military logistics information."

Earlier this week, US Defense Secretary Robert Gates warned that cyber attacks pose a "huge" threat.

89 pos kawalan sempadan PGA diserah kepada ATM

RANTAU PANJANG 15 Nov. - Kesemua 89 pos kawalan sempadan termasuk perairan negara di seluruh Semenanjung Malaysia yang sebelum ini dikawal oleh Pasukan Gerakan Am (PGA) diserahkan kepada Angkatan Tentera Malaysia (ATM) selama enam bulan, bermula hari ini.

Timbalan Pengarah PGA, Pengurusan Sempadan dan Kawalan Keselamatan Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa, Jabatan Keselamatan Dalam Negeri dan Ketenteraman Awam, Datuk Mat Salleh Mat Rasit berkata, keputusan tersebut dicapai pada mesyuarat National Strategy Execution Summit (NSES)-National Blue Ocean Strategy 1 pada awal tahun ini.

Jelasnya, pengambilalihan itu bertujuan memindahkan lebih 500 anggota PGA yang bertugas di situ ke negeri-negeri hotspot iaitu Pulau Pinang, Selangor, Kuala Lumpur dan Johor Bharu untuk menurunkan indeks jenayah dan jenayah jalanan.

"Polis memerlukan tambahan 10,000 anggota untuk bertugas bagi menurunkan indeks jenayah sebanyak lima peratus dan jenayah jalanan sebanyak 20 peratus di empat negeri ini.

"Oleh itu, salah satu sumber kita adalah membawa anggota-anggota PGA ini ke negeri-negeri berkenaan dan bertugas di situ," katanya.

Beliau bercakap kepada pemberita selepas Majlis Serah/Terima Tugas Ops Wawasan dan Ops Nyah 1 di Markas Taktikal Briged Tenggara PGA Lubok Setol di sini hari ini.

Mat Salleh mewakili Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM), manakala ATM diwakili Panglima Dua Divisyen, Mejar Jeneral Datuk Mohd. Noor Daud dalam majlis serah dan terima tugas itu.

Turut hadir Ketua Polis Kelantan, Datuk Abdul Rahim Hanafi; Panglima 2 Briged, Brigedier Jeneral Datuk Zulkifli Mansor dan Panglima 8 Briged, Brigedier Jeneral Abdul Rahim Abdul Mutalib.

Jelasnya, selepas enam bulan, kerajaan akan membuat keputusan semula sama ada akan meneruskan pengambilalihan itu atau tidak.

Menurut Mat Salleh, semua pertukaran itu hanya melibatkan kawasan sempadan negara di seluruh Semenanjung, manakala Sabah dan Sarawak tidak terlibat.

Sementara itu, Mohd. Noor berkata, ATM akan mengguna pakai pendekatan seperti yang digunakan oleh PDRM dalam menempatkan anggotanya untuk berkawal di semua pos terlibat.

"Buat permulaan kita akan tempatkan 10 anggota di setiap pos ini dan mereka akan diganti setiap dua bulan.

"Kita tidak ada masalah dengan tugasan seperti ini kerana memang sejak dulu ATM menjalin kerjasama erat dengan PDRM," ujarnya.

yg aku takut kan, ehem2 tuu yg bertambah nantiii.... masyallah, tak baik aku berfikiran mcm niii...

ehem2 apa tu DF?

erkkk, aku pun x paham maksud DF...

Makmal latih polis banteras judi

Kursus lengkapkan pengetahuan, mantap prosedur siasatan pegawai PDRM

KUALA LUMPUR: Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) mengorak langkah memantapkan lagi prosedur siasatan jenayah dengan melancarkan tiga inisiatif, termasuk mewujudkan Makmal Latihan Pencegahan Perjudian bagi melatih pegawainya dengan selok-belok perjudian bagi memerangi kegiatan itu habis-habisan.

Selain itu, PDRM menerusi Jabatan Siasatan Jenayah (JSJ) Bukit Aman turut menghasilkan Manual Standard Prosedur Operasi Siasatan (SOP) berhubung kes kekerasan seperti bunuh, rogol, cabul dan samun selain melancarkan portal ‘CID Update’ bagi memudahkan komunikasi dalaman jabatan itu.

Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Ismail Omar, berkata selain membanteras perjudian yang mendatangkan banyak kesan buruk kepada masyarakat dan negara, penubuhan makmal itu juga penting bagi memastikan PDRM sentiasa bersedia dengan pengetahuan dan peralatan sesuai selari perkembangan semasa.

Katanya, makmal dilengkapi peralatan perjudian bagi memberi latihan amali kepada pegawai PDRM, diharap membolehkan pegawai diiktiraf ‘pakar judi’ sekali gus dapat melaksanakan tugas membanteras perjudian haram secara lebih efektif.

“Seperti kata ‘to catch a thief, need to be a thief’ (bagi menangkap penjenayah, polis perlu berfikir seperti penjenayah) dan untuk menguatkuasakan undang-undang, PDRM setiap tahun mengadakan kursus pakar judi bagi melengkapkan pengetahuan di kalangan pegawai PDRM.

“Tujuannya memudahkan peserta kursus memahami setiap permainan judi yang dijalankan dengan lebih efektif melalui pendedahan amali seperti di kasino atau pusat perjudian,” katanya ketika berucap melancarkan tiga inisiatif berkenaan di Maktab PDRM, semalam.

Hadir sama, Timbalan Ketua Polis Negara, Datuk Hussin Ismail dan Pengarah JSJ Bukit Aman, Datuk Seri Mohd Bakri Zinin.

Dalam perkembangan lain, Ismail berkata polis masih meneruskan siasatan berhubung kes penjualan bayi oleh sebuah hospital swasta di Jalan Ipoh di sini, termasuk kemungkinan sindiket itu mempunyai rangkaian di seluruh negara walaupun semua suspek sudah dibebaskan dengan jaminan polis.

Katanya, berkata kes berkenaan masih lagi dalam siasatan dan pihaknya juga melihat daripada segenap aspek sebelum mengambil sebarang tindakan susulan.

Beliau bagaimanapun enggan mengulas apabila ditanya sama ada polis akan menahan beberapa lagi individu yang dipercayai terbabit dalam kes berkenaan.

“Kita sedang menyiasat lagi... kita akan lihat perkembangannya nanti,” katanya.

Kelmarin, empat suspek termasuk seorang wanita dipercayai pembekal bayi kepada hospital swasta di sini yang ditahan pada 9 November lalu, dibebaskan dengan jaminan polis.

Tiga lagi suspek yang turut bebas ialah dua lelaki dipercayai pemandu teksi dan penjual roti canai dan seorang lagi wanita dipercayai ibu kepada seorang bayi yang dijual pada September lalu.

Selain empat suspek itu, turut ditahan ialah seorang doktor bergelar Datuk bersama isteri dan anak perempuannya serta tiga kakitangan hospital terbabit pada 1 November lalu, namun dibebaskan sembilan hari kemudian dengan jaminan polis.

Sementara itu, Ismail mengarahkan Jabatan Siasatan Jenayah (JSJ) Bukit Aman memberi tumpuan bagi memastikan pihak terbabit dalam kes pembunuhan seorang peguam di Ipoh, Selasa lalu, yang dipercayai dirancang penjenayah profesional, dihadapkan ke muka pengadilan.

By Yereth Rosen

ANCHORAGE (Reuters) - The Air Force confirmed on Friday that the pilot of an F-22 fighter jet that crashed in Alaska earlier this week during a nighttime training mission perished in the accident.

Air Force officials initially had held out hope that the pilot of the Lockheed Martin twin-engine fighter equipped with stealth technology might have ejected and survived Tuesday night's crash.

"Based on evidence recovered from the crash site, and after two days of extensive aerial and ground search efforts, we know that Captain Jeffrey Haney did not eject from the aircraft prior to impact," Colonel Jack McMullen, commander of the Air Force 3rd Wing, said in a statement.

Search teams at the wreckage site, about 100 miles (160 km) north of Anchorage, found part of Haney's ejection seat and several items the pilot wore during the flight, McMullen said.

At a news conference, McMullen said the the crash left a hole in the earth and that most of what remains of the aircraft is below ground level. An aerial photo of the crash site showed a round crater in the forest, surrounded by blackened trees.

Radar contact with Haney's aircraft was lost as the jet and another plane were returning to their home base at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. The wreckage was spotted the next morning by an Alaska National Guard helicopter crew.

Spying from Space: US launches world's largest satellite
November 23, 2010 - 4:52PM


[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

The United States has launched the largest satellite ever to orbit earth; while its exact purpose is secret, it’s not going to be monitoring the weather.

Its mission will be to gather intelligence for the US National Reconnaissance Office.

The satellite, dubbed NROL-32, was sent into orbit by a Delta 4 Heavy rocket — the largest unmanned rocket with the most powerful liquid-fueled booster. US National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) Director Bruce Carlson said the NROL-32 would be “the largest satellite in the world”.

All this superlative hugeness isn’t likely just a result of Americans’ obsession with size; in fact, the NRO launches almost as many small vehicles into space as it does large ones. More to the point, however, NROL-32 has a very important job: replacing a slew of Cold War-era satellites currently in orbit past their expiration dates.

Carlson gave an address last month in which he stated that the agency had adopted a new charter and “a remarkably aggressive launch campaign” to go along with it.

Referencing the then-upcoming NROL-32 launch and related launches, Carlson said, “This is the most aggressive launch campaign that the National Reconnaissance Office has had in 20 yea ... These [satellites] are very important, because they all go to update a constellation which is aging rapidly. We bought most of our satellites for three, five, or eight years, and we’re keeping them on orbit for ten, twelve, and up to twenty years.”

Carlson also said then that those aging satellites “designed to essentially operate during the era of the Soviet Uni ... are today doing tactical intelligence collection that leads us to actionable intelligence on bad guys every day. Every day.”

In a September 13 address, Carlson told an audience that this Delta 4 Heavy rocket would launch "with the largest satellite in the world on it", according to Space.com.
