  13. “Australian authorities have ordered an urgent review of security at Sydney's international airport after the theft of two mainframe computers from a restricted customs area….. The federal government is investigating the security breach, but has denied media reports in Australia that the computers held thousands of confidential files. The theft is an embarrassment for the authorities at Sydney Airport, the busiest in Australia. The two suspected thieves told guards they were employees of the airport's computer department. They were allowed to enter the customs division mainframe room, which is a high-security zone. The men spent two hours disconnecting the computers, before calmly walking out, pushing the machines on trolleys. The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper had claimed that top security communications between customs investigators, the federal police and Australia's main domestic spy agency ASIO had been lost.” August 2003 National Technology & Business Conference 30 November 2005

  14. March 2005 Police in London say they have foiled one of the biggest attempted bank thefts in Britain. The plan was to steal £220m ($423m) from the London offices of the Japanese bank Sumitomo Mitsui. Computer experts are believed to have tried to transfer the money electronically after hacking into the bank's systems. A man has been arrested by police in Israel after the plot was uncovered by the National Hi-Tech Crime Unit. The investigation was started in October 2004 after it was discovered that computer hackers had gained access to the bank's computer system in London. They managed to infiltrate the system with keylogging software that would have enabled them to track every button pressed on computer keyboards. From that they could learn account numbers, passwords and other sensitive information. Yeron Bolondi, 32, was seized in Israel after an attempt to transfer £13.9m into an account there.

  15. Aer Lingus web-site. Tickets to the USA went on sale through the company’s web-site on Friday 10th October. They offered return fares to New York, Boston and other destinations for Euro 148. It was only discovered later that day that the tickets were restricted to Aer Lingus employees but had mistakenly been made available to the public through the web-site. Within a few hours it is reported that hundreds of tickets were sold, costing the company tens of thousands of Euro. The company blamed human error, and stated that it would stand over the purchases National Technology & Business Conference 30 November 2005

  16. Friday, 11 March, 2005 The Sudanese government had a nasty shock earlier this year, when it read on a US Congress website that the Americans had conducted nuclear tests in the country. A House of Representatives committee report mentioned tests conducted in Sudan between 1962 and 1970. However, when alarmed Foreign Minister (Mustafa Osman Ismail) raised it with US officials in Khartoum, it turned out to be a typing error. The report should have said Sedan, a test site in the US state of Nevada, rather than Sudan. "There is nothing that makes us so far doubt the explanations we have received from the US Administration," said Mr Ismail. He said he was very relieved to find that it was a simple error. "Our first concern of course was for the people of Sudan," he said. The American embassy in Khartoum issued a statement confirming that the US had never conducted nuclear tests in Sudan. The minister, however, remains determined to make completely sure. National Technology & Business Conference 30 November 2005
