The Internet hacker collective Anonymous claims to have breached the security of NATO's computer network and made off with roughly a gigabyte of “restricted material,” according to a message posted from a Twitter account belonging to the group.

Anonymous released two NATO documents in PDF form, both apparently confidential documents belonging to the cross national defense organization. One document purports to be a restricted memo from 2008 detailing NATO plans to outsource communication and information systems (CIS) support for crisis response operations in the Balkans. The other PDF is an unclassified document describing the security procedures, both electronic and physical, within the alliance.

NATO did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but a report from the Telegraph claims that NATO is investigating the Anonymous’s claims

They surely stole ultra-secret datas like the menu of the next week at the cantina, or the number of toilet paper rolls ordered, even maybe the top-priority ultra confidential file about the general'sdaughter secret party surprise ^^
