US Senate Website Hacked, Review Ordered

Monday, 13 June 2011 08:14 PM EDT

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Sergeant at Arms Office confirmed Monday that the Senate's website had been hacked this past weekend and that it has ordered a review of all Senate computer sites.

"Although this intrusion is inconvenient, it does not compromise the security of the Senate's network, its members or staff," a Sergeant at Arms Office official said. "Specifically, there is no individual user account information on the server supporting senate.gov that could have been compromised."
