The federal intelligence agencies on Thursday put the Mumbai police on a high state of alert informing them that militants of Al-Qaeda were planning to attack the Saudi Arabian consulate in Mumbai and that there is high possibility of Saudi aircraft being hijacked from Indian airports.
A senior police official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Arab News yesterday that the alert were sounded after the interception of communications between militant organizations saying that some Al-Qaeda militants have infiltrated into the country and were likely to carry out terrorist acts against the Saudi interests in Mumbai.
The Maharashtra state government has put maximum security around the Saudi consulate, Saudi Arabian Airlines office, the city airport and other business offices of Saudi Arabia in the city.
The intelligence department and the city cops in plainclothes were patrolling the areas where the Saudi consulate and the Saudi Arabian Airline offices are located, said another police official.
If I were running things, I would give these “spies” a fake interface to play with, so they would think they were hacking something important. I would also make the individual controls self diagnosing and actively monitored. Encryption??? Why on earth would you put such a network on anything accessible from the outside world?
Sounds like they need to put in some bugs that return to them and scramble there computers when they try to access our grids.
