Virus Love Bug cripples agencies and alarms lawmakers
Congressional investigators testified that the Love Bug virus spread rapidly, delaying warnings from the FBI and causing extensive damage across 20 federal agencies. The Health and Human Services Dept faced massive email disruption and 3 million bogus messages, while NASA suffered at least 1,000 damaged files and SSA took five days to recover. The probe urged lessons from the private sector and questioned the government's readiness for fast-moving cyber threats.
