20120202 : VeriSign reveals an intrusion in its corporate network in 2010

VeriSign announced at the end of 2011 that its corporate network (allowing employees to access internet or proceed emails...) had been the victim of an intrusion in 2010.

This network is distinct from the production networks used for PKI and SSL certificates.

It occurred after the sale of the SSL activity to Symantec but before that network integration by Symantec.

Symantec indicates the PKI production network was never in danger.
