  There was an article in the news about an ISIS hacker who recently passed U.S. military data to terrorists. A  man from Kosovo was arrested and was operating as a middle mad for ISIS operating in Malaysia. The man stole data from 1,300 military personnel by hacking into a U.S. military base. He got caught because he used his real name on twitter. He openly communicated with ISIS memebers online, Obviously this guy wasn't very smart in protecting himself from authorities. He was a leader of a Kosvo hacking organization Kosva Hacker Security, Although with that name you would think the guy could have prevented himself from being caught.

Cell phones are also being targeted people can hack into cell phones using radio singals. That's scary in itself. If your cell phone starts acting weird and doing things you didn't make it do then you've probably been hacked.

The article states, "The radio transmitter sends radio waves to silently trigger voice commands on any iPhone or Android phone (with a pair of microphone-enabled headphones plugged in) that has Siri or Google Now enabled respectively".

Very interesting read from this aticle - .
