Feds turn up heat on high-tech industry links to al-Qaeda
Last night's raid of a Massachusetts-based software firm for possible links to al-Qaeda signals a shift in the FBI's focus on nongovernmental organizations and charities to corporate America, including the IT industry, experts close to the investigation said.
Bringing to a close one phase of an ongoing investigation code-named Operation Greenquest, the FBI raided the Quincy, Mass., offices of Ptech Inc. in an effort to search for evidence that the company was involved in helping to finance al-Qaeda operations. It is also investigating the possibility that software Ptech sold to various government agencies may have contained malicious code. [Computerworld]
