Metropolitan Transportation Authority

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the biggest mass transit system in the country that transports millions of people everyday in and around New York City, had several of its computer systems compromised by hackers.

The attack impacted three of the transit agency's 18 systems.

The MTA required a password change as an extra security step for 3,700 users and transferred distant users to different VPNs as a precaution.
