Alleged Security Breach
The person (dubbed ComodoHacker) responsible for the DigiNotar hack, (the person also responsible for the security breach at Comodo Group) claims that he has also hacked the systems of GlobalSign and GlobalSign took the claim seriously enough to halt the signing/issuing of new certificates while investigating the claims which the GlobalSign Incident Report referred to being the most responsible reaction in order to accelerate the investigation and protect against issuance of rogue Certificates should the claims be true.
Dutch security company Fox-IT was contracted to analyze the breach and GlobalSign released a security incident report

Famous quotes containing the words alleged, security and/or breach:
“The entire construct of the “medical model” of “mental illness”Mwhat is it but an analogy? Between physical medicine and psychiatry: the mind is said to be subject to disease in the same manner as the body. But whereas in physical medicine there are verifiable physiological proofs—in damaged or affected tissue, bacteria, inflammation, cellular irregularity—in mental illness alleged socially unacceptable behavior is taken as a symptom, even as proof, of pathology.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
“When kindness has left people, even for a few moments, we become afraid of them as if their reason had left them. When it has left a place where we have always found it, it is like shipwreck; we drop from security into something malevolent and bottomless.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“Good manners, to those one does not love, are no more a breach of truth, than “your humble servant,” at the bottom of a challenge is; they are universally agreed upon, and understand to be things of course. They are necessary guards of the decency and peace of society.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
