In 1989, two Melbourne teenage hackers known as Electron and Phoenix stole a restricted computer security list and used it to break into some of the world's most classified and supposedly secure computer systems. So fast and widespread was the attack, no-one could work out how it had happened - until one of the hackers called The New York Times to brag.
Ten years after their arrest, this dramatised documentary uncovers not only how they did it but why. It takes us headlong into the clandestine, risky but intoxicating world of the computer underground.

Makes You wonder if perhaps the old Paper classified could be secured better location wise and access. That still of course depends on people living up to their obligations and safeguarding the file storage facilities. Computers it seems have added another way to break into file You have no legitimate reason to have any access to. In any event it's good to see those that make unauthorized access and perhaps even use be discovered and prosecuted. There can be NO tolerance for this sort of thing ever !
