发帖数: 1 | 1 The Pentagon has imposed an emergency shutdown of its Secret Internet
Protocol Router Network, which handles classified information up to the
secret level
This has never happened in the middle of a work day," one Pentagon official
said. "Updates usually are done on weekends and after hours late at night.
This was done on an emergency basis." | g**8

My best guess is this has to do with the Solarwind exploit. Perhaps that's
also part of the network and they're realizing how deep they're compromised.
This has major implications, the shutdown of their critical communication
system is worrying.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIPRNet
The Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) is "a system of
interconnected computer networks used by the U.S. Department of Defense and
the U.S. Department of State to transmit classified information (up to and
including information classified SECRET) by packet switching over the '
completely secure' environment". It also provides services such as hypertext
document access and electronic mail. As such, SIPRNet is the DoD's
classified version of the civilian Internet. |
