DTN News - LOCKHEED MARTIN DEFENSE NEWS: Lockheed Martin Hit By Unspecified Cyber Incident....NSI News Source Info # 2014(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - May 29, 2011: Lockheed Martin Corp., the U.S. government's top information technology provider, said on Saturday it had thwarted "a significant and tenacious attack" on its information systems network a week ago but was still working to restore employee access.

She said the company, the world's biggest aerospace company and the Pentagon's No. 1 supplier by sales, was working around the clock to restore employee access to the targeted network while maintaining the highest security level.
