Raspberry Pi used to hack NASA

The US Office of the Inspector General (OIG) issued a report detailing cybersecurity incidents at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), which includes insight into how a Raspberry Pi was used to hack into NASA's system.

"Over the past 10 years, JPL has experienced several notable cybersecurity incidents that have compromised major segments of its IT network," the OIG stated.

A Rapsberry Pi is a credit card-sized microcomputer which offers similar functionality ...

I noticed the misspelling when i did a highlighted web search. Massive error!
