The Navy is investigating how an unauthorized user in Iran gained online access to blueprints and other information about a helicopter in President Barack Obama’s fleet.
Employees at data monitoring firm Tiversa last week discovered that potentially sensitive information about the helicopter had been viewed by a “malicious” source in Iran, company spokesperson Scott Harrer said Monday. Tiversa late last year notified a Bethesda, Md.-based defense contractor that there was an “open window” in their network leaking information about the helicopter.
