BEP, US Treasury Web Sites Hacked
Security researchers discovered that the website for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and associated "MoneyFactory Store" were hacked on Monday.
The attacker added instructions to the front page of both sites that would run a script to allow a Ukrainian-based system insert instructions that will allow someone to attack a user's computer through the browser.
Currently, the BEP website (moneyfactory.gov, bep.gov, and bep.treas.gov) and the BEP's online store (moneyfactorystore.gov) are off-line. The website used to support the launch the new $100 Federal Reserve Note (newmoney.gov) was not infected by this attack.
