Immigration Computers Insecure As Border Itself

The U.S. immigration and border management system, called US-VISIT, is left unpatched and OPEN TO HACKERS, according to Threat Level, which blogged: "There's little reason to think that US-VISIT isn't owned up right now." A congressional investigation has found that "mainframe, network devices, and administrator workstations supporting US-VISIT could be compromised and could lead to denial-of-service attacks or to individuals gaining unauthorized access to network resources."
