Major U.S. banks have turned to the National Security Agency for help protecting their computer systems after a barrage of assaults that have disrupted their Web sites.
The attacks on the sites, which started about a year ago but intensified in September, have grown increasingly sophisticated, officials said.
The NSA, the world’s largest electronic spying agency, has been asked to provide technical assistance to help banks further assess their systems and to better understand the attackers’ tactics.
Will your CU need to call in the NSA? Let's hope not.
