Internet: Air Force Personnel database hacked

IndyChannel.com reports the Air Force is notifying tens of thousands of its officers about a cyber break-in.

It is believed that the personal data of more than 33,000 officers and 19 enlisted airmen may have been stolen by hacking into a careers database.

The Air Force said it quickly plugged the leak, but it is still trying to find the hacker.
