[HIB]Legislative website being repaired after hack

Legislative staffers reloaded data into a state website Wednesday after discovering the site was infected by a virus. Hackers were drawn to the site after they learned the system was vulnerable to attack, the Legislature's director of information technology said Wednesday.Scott Clark updated legislative leaders on the situation that first came to his attention last week, when someone who attempted to use the state's bill status system alerted him it was running slowly.He said he doesn't think the hacker had a grudge against the Legislature. "They probe and they look for particular openings or decreased security and then take advantage of it," he said. "I don't think the Legislature was targeted."
