Spain Busts A BotNet

Northrop Grumman's Shut Out Of The Federal Government..

This came across my desk today at work; "New Information:
Recently, the GovTrip website experienced a security breach. At this time, the GSA CIO has pulled Northrop Grumman's authority to operate across all Agencies. Therefore, all OM GovTrip users will not be able to access the GovTrip travel system until further notice."

Sounds like someone's pissed.

The Post had a small story on this (see below). Considering NG touts itself as a "security" company, this is all pretty bad news. No bail out for you boys...
