BREAKING: CENTCOM Twitter Gets Hacked By ISIS During Obama Speech on Cyber Security

BREAKING: CENTCOM Twitter Gets Hacked By ISIS During Obama Speech on Cyber Security

In the past hour the Twitter account belonging to U.S. Central Command was hacked by someone or a group of individuals claiming to be from ISIS.

A series of tweets were sent out with sensitive information about U.S. military strategy toward North Korea and China. The tweets also threatened military personnel and their families. UPDATE: The information that was posted on the account has been verified by intelligence sources as real information hacked directly from CENTCOMM, meaning this wasn't simply a hack of a Twitter account, but against CENTCOMM itself. It is unclear whether CENTCOMM itself was hacked or if the hack was limited to a hack on Twitter. Since the breach, Twitter has suspended the CENTCOMM account.

UPDATE: The CENTCOM YouTube page was also hacked and filled with ISIS propaganda videos.

President Obama was giving a speech about cyber security when the breach happened. 

Over the weekend, hacking group Anonymous officially declared it will engage ISIS and radical Islam through cyber warfare in response to the Islamic terror attack on Charlie Hebdo last week.
