The femme fatale, who apparently leads the hacktivist group Anonymous, reputedly has long, blonde hair and tends to wear pink. She also apparently attempts to disguise her identity by wearing a monocle, top hat and a false moustache, according to sources close to the group. Our sources informed us that close friends call her Luiz or Lulu, but that often times they try not to call her at all, for fear of being hacked by a certain media empire. We also received word that the second-in-command goes by the name Lubo.

Saturday night as was I reporting on the “retirement” of the criminal hacker gang LulzSec, I took a chance: I downloaded the file containing the group’s “final drop,” which it had released to the BitTorrent site The Pirate Bay.

The file was 600-plus megabytes and contained several things, including evidence that the group, or someone helping it out, had defaced a Navy civilian jobs board and a list of corporate networks belonging to numerous companies, including the Walt Disney Company. But the biggest thing inside that folder was a trove of documents apparently taken from wireless giant AT&T concerning the planned construction and rollout of its LTE network. (Incidentally, AT&T isn’t commenting on the documents, and so won’t say whether they’re authentic.) Why LulzSec had no choice but to disband. The abrupt decision of LulzSec to disband – or, at least, to appear to disband – may have caught some people by surprise: was it like a band breaking up at the peak of its powers?

Its final pronouncements were gnomic as usual, linking to a Pastebin page in which it announced it was ending after 50 days (which implies that it began on the weekend of 7-8 May with the hack of Fox.com for the X Factor US contestants' database) and a torrent which turned out to be virus-infected. For those who read it, the 457MB download included internal data from AOL and AT&T and what are claimed to be FBI documents. LulzSec hacking suspect's house searched in Hamilton, Ohio.

Yet another breach of information has occurred, this time from the Arizona Department of Public Safety. A large amount of data about law enforcement operations was exposed, as was a considerable amount of personnel information. As someone who has been working in information security and the implications of technology for nearly 30 years, two things come to mind. First, if a largely uncoordinated group could penetrate the systems and expose all this information, then so could a much more focused, well-financed, and malevolent group — and it would not likely result in postings picked up by the media. Attacks by narcotics cartels, organized crime, terrorists and intelligence agencies are obvious threats; we can only assume that some have already succeeded but not been recognized or publicized.

And, as others are noting, this poses a real threat to the physical safety of innocent people. Have you seen one report yet about anything like the above? Update: June 26 I am going to leave it here. LulzSec Says Goodbye With New Data Dump. Hactivist collective LulzSec disbands - Crime, UK.

Over the past two months LulzSec has been responsible for a string of publicity seeking hacks and disruption attacks on a host of websites including the CIA, Nintendo, Sony Pictures and the Arizona Police Department. The group started off claiming its hacks were done purely for fun and to highlight poor cyber security. But in recent weeks it became increasingly political targeting a slew of government websites and announcing an alliance with the once rival hactivist group Anonymous.

Lulzsec has claimed a new scalp - releasing confidential material taken from the Arizona police department. The anonymous hacking group says they've not been knocked off course, or successfully exposed, by rival hackers who claim to have named them online - apparently because they object to their agenda. This agenda seems to have evolved. We weren't able to talk to Whirlpool in person, but met in cyberspace in a private online chat room. What is Operation Antisec in your own words?
