Three Treasury websites close due to malicious code

Malicious code was discovered on three Treasury Department websites on May 3 and by the next morning the infected sites had been closed, allegedly for cleaning, according to Roger Thompson, chief research officer for AVG Technologies. According to Federal Computer Week, Thompson discovered the code and believes it links to two attack servers in Ukraine. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing's bep.gov, bep.treas.gov and moneyfactory.gov sites were affected. Treasury has yet to issue a statement on the reports. Article
