Pittsburgh's WPXI this week broke the news that sensitive details regarding Marine One have been leaked via P2P.

"A data security company in Pennsylvania this weekend confirmed that sensitive schematics for the Sikorsky VH-60N helicopter - better known by the call sign 'Marine One' when used as personal transport for the President of the United States - had been leaked over the Gnutella peer-to-peer file sharing network, and appeared to be in the possession of a probable cybercriminal in Iran," writes Ars Technica's Julian Sanchez.

"Tiversa, headquartered in Cranberry Township, Pa., reportedly discovered a security breach that led to the transfer of military information to an Iranian IP address... The information is said to include planned engineering upgrades, avionic schematics, and computer network information," writes CNET's Charles Cooper.

"The Iranian IP address at which the file was found belongs to an 'information concentrator' - someone who searches P2P networks for sensitive information, said Chris Gormley, chief operating officer at Tiversa," writes Computerworld's Jaikumar Vijayan. "The location where the file was found included several other documents with classified and sensitive military information that were also leaked over file-sharing networks, Gormley said."
