EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

iTnews' Juha Saarinen has filed an update on a data breach that has become a massive source of concern for the New Zealand Government. Read his original story and a more substantial update in this week's bulletin.

The United States Government is meanwhile considering "pre-emptive" attacks against state-sponsored hackers.

So how do you know your systems are about to be attacked? Food for thought.

-- Brett Winterford
