The Obama administration’s Department of Labor (DOL) website was used to launch a cyber-attack, infecting visitors logging on to official DOL web pages on nuclear energy.
DOL’s “nuclear-related” web pages sent out a “Watering Hole” attack in April 2013. In a “Watering Hole” attack, the bad guys target a specific group of people and set malware traps on web pages that the group is likely to visit. So when visitors went on DOL’s nuclear pages, they received malware from the rogue Internet domain “dol.nso1.us.”
The attack was confirmed only by a 2013 post by Craig Williams, a security executive at Cisco Systems, to a Cisco company website.
Why would somebody want to give malware, which can include programs to track victimized computers, to people visiting federal government websites on nuclear energy? The DOL would not say.

Your government has corrupted every founding principle that made this country great. It did not take them too long to replace freedom with tyranny and Islamic doctrine.

I suspect the Obama administration and the DOL until proven otherwise.
