centcom. >> let me add a couple things to that. these are public accounts. the tweets and youtube are not the classified networks that our military uses so this is embarrassing, but it is not a fundamental breach of national security. they've also been hacking into small newspapers around the country. it worries me that social media and certainly these magazines like "inspire," which is a magazine al awlaki are recruiting tools for the bad guys. we have to get better at using social media, penetrateing their sites, and counter narratives. let me say one other thing about aqap and isil and other groups. david is right about this. think in terms of the chart. not a top down command and control network. that's not what we have in terrorsprks inc. it is loosely based groups attached horizontally. turkey has had a very ambivalent policy about isil. finally, it's being more helpful in policing the border. what really worries about these affiliations to yemen is the bomb maker is still alive and well despite being on the u.s. most wanted lists and other most wanted lists for a long time.

, turns out this big hack by isis was likely simply caused by weak cybersecurity by centcom for its twitter and youtube accounts. based on comments from the pentagon today and other sources centcom personnel used weak password for its twitter account and failed to take simple extra security steps that would have made it a lot harder to hack. the pentagon said today it has begun to change and toughen password for 50 social media accounts operated just by the office of the secretary of defense. the defense department set up thousands of social media sites, twitter and youtube and others at operations like centcom which itself is looking for a, looking at new protections for its sites. today the president announced additional proposals to strengthen cybersecurity and said the hacks at centcom emphasized the need to act. >> just yesterday we saw the hack of a military twitter account and youtube channel. no military operations were impacted. so far it appears no classified information was released but the investigation is ongoing and it is a reminder that cyber threats are an urgent and growing danger >> a

cybersecurity experts turns out this big hack from isis resulted from weak security by centcom for twitter and youtubes. "wall street journal" is reporting that centcom used weak passwords for twitter account. failed to take extra security steps that would make the hack a lot harder and get this, executed with a person's personal email address rather than than a government address which would have made it harder to hack. of the centcom said the accounts were on commercial servers not government servers a lot harder to hack. centcom says the networks were not compromised military networks and there was no operational impact. the judgment today at a minimum it was a big propaganda victory for isis. stuart: that is exactly what it was. thank you very much, peter. >> thanks, stuart. stuart: democrat chris van hollen is pushing tax inincreases. val hollen wants a tiny fee on all buy and sell market transactions. let's bring in grover norquist in washington. i want to deal with this, transaction tax on all buying and selling securities. it is a minuscule tax, .1 after cent. doesn't sound like much. doesn't

centcom. they hacked into youtube, hacked into twitter. presumably they used somebody's password. maybe they hacked some place to get a password to bet into these other sites. centcom, i believe, as far as i know right now is correct in saying they did not hack into u.s. defense department computer servers or whatever. nonetheless, it is flat-out embarrassing. >> yeah. it's the army. >> exactly. so if you're a u.s. central command, and your twitter feed and your youtube feed are, you know, have this isis flag on them, that's a very bad thing. that's really embarrassing. and you shouldn't have social media accounts if you can't protect them better than that. >> sometimes hollywood, although the usual scantily clad women thing last night, the usual parade they put on. there were some serious things they put on. i was impressed when i watched most of it last night, the golden globes. the topic on a lot of the people's minds was france. let's listen. >> today was an extraordinary day. there were millions of people that marched not just in paris but around the world.

they're searching for those responsible for the hack attack of centcom's twitter and youtube accountsthe building, they're almost certain that it is not isis itself because in some threatening message posted by the hackers on the centcom twitter site they referred specifically in those threats to isis. but not even isis calls itself isis. they call themselves the islamic state. they think they're already created that caliphate. they're in iraq and syria so they can legitimately call themselves a state. so because of that there's some suspicion that these are people claiming links to isis but probably not. >> that's fascinating, jim. so this is all about the official line is cyber vandalism. >> that's right. you know it appeared overnight. first of all, when centcom got the twitter site back up after being down almost all day after it had been hacked they sent out a note saying we're back and then blamed the incident on cyber vandalism. but you know this is really an alarm bell to the pentagon to the military. officials tell us that there are thousands of these social websites or these

centcom has confirmed twitter and youtube accounts were compromised earlier today.ng into this. i will say we should be careful talking about how it was hacked. to get into a twitter account, it's almost -- it could be embarrassingly simple based on how easy your pass word was, on if this was a phishing scam. an s what i'm hearing. my question to you would be we talk a lot about isis' capability as far as sophistication goes as far as videos social media, but how -- are they capable of carrying out a real cybercrime? >> no. probably not. most experts think they don't have the capability to launch a major cyberattack on the united states. they have hacked into twitter and youtube here not the pentagon. that's very very important to point out. some of these documents they have posted they may have already been out there online and they are just sort of putting them out there again for propaganda purposes. >> d.o.d. saying it's not classified but i clicked on it before the whole thing was suspended and you could see members of the military's names, phone numbers. >> i

i get it less in the context of a military organization like centcom and they have a youtube page.not like they're doing send ups of "call me maybe." >> well, i haven't looked at all the videos on the youtube page, maybe they are. but, look, ultimately the way to think about this is this is a bizarre form of politics. we are in this disingaggregated form of warfare. isis is trying to do bold and provocative things online, or isis supporters, to rally their political base. and centcom to some extent and the u.s. military are trying to do the same thing. the tweets they put out, the videos they put out are very affirming of the u.s. military, of its mission in the world, of its role. it's all about speaking to their base, the american people, and also to people who might want to join the u.s. military and portraying it all in a very positive light. that's what everyone is using twitter for, and it's this really interesting battle on social media for hearts and minds, not just in the united states and in the middle east but around the world. they're all trying to shape perceptions wit

i think it's important to point out that centcom its has not been hacked. this is youtube and twitter. that's much easier to hack than centcom's mainframe systems. we're talking about a hack into the social media sites. nevertheless it's obviously embarrassing for the u.s. military. we know that isis does have a bunch of cyber guys who operate in rank in syria and also perhaps in mosul, in iraq. but they're not thought to have a huge capability when i comes to this kind of cyberattacks. >> bob baer give us some perspective, how important tral command is to this war on terror. >> it's a key. it's in charge of the middle east. it's the most important command and the best people go there. it's our face in the middle east in the wars in syria and iraq and yemen. but paul is absolutely right. they cannot get into centcom computers. that would be extraordinary if they could, a miracle in fact. but the fact is these people are capable of carrying on propaganda on the internet as well as recruiting and the rest of it. and we are at war with them in cyberspace. the fact that they d

centcome doesn't defend its twitter and youtube account. >> isn't there something wrong with that? >> no. it's a commercial account. maybe they shouldn't be on commercial accounts? >> you think? considering it's national security. we're talking 20 different countries in asia and the middle east that centcome has control over. >> and the secure networks are protected. they are not perfect. they are at risk and we need to protect them more effectively than we do. but the twitter one is not the big problem here. it's a bigger problem than that. >> thanks guys, appreciate it. >> so is multiculturism to blame? that is coming up next. i make a lot of purchases for my business. and i get a lot in return with ink plus from chase. like 50,000 bonus points when i spent $5,000 in the first 3 months after i opened my account. and i earn 5 times the rewards on internet, phone services and at office supply stores. with ink plus i can choose how to redeem my points. travel, gift cards even cash back. and my rewards points won't expire. so you can make owning a business even more rewarding. ink fr

. >> i want to ask about the attack on centcom social media and twitter and youtube.hetic group that hacked so easily into central command. i know the pentagon says it's not a classified site. obviously these open sources, but how concerned should we be? >> well listen we should be concerned because we need cyber security legislation and need it passed now. that's why the president has given a speech in the last 24 hours, administration's putting public piece of legislation something they haven't done before and when you've got a committed white house, i can assure you it's going to be matched with a committed senate of the united states and dianne feinstein and i are working aggressively to get that out. it was their twitter and their facebook accounts. it was a social media sites that were hacked. it wasn't the classified side. it would be much more difficult to do that. but it shows intent and i think that's the key thing. whether we look at the attacks by social media or we talk about potential threats to the united states, the first thing you have to ask, is ther

youtube accounts of the military central command. for 30 minutes the hackers whose message included "i love isis" took control and tweeted threatening messages on centcom's feed. american soldiers we are coming, said one message, watch your back. and posted isis propaganda videos on youtube. >> this really does embarrass the department of defense in the sense it can't even secure its own publicly available website. >> reporter: the hackers also posted names and phone numbers of high ranking generals which are for official use only. but defense officials insist that information was not classified and that no military secrets were compromised. >> the attacks have been extremely embarrassing, but they have caused no long-term damage. and there's no evidence whatsoever that these hackers have managed to get their hands on classified information. >> reporter: late tonight centcom called the hack attack cyber vandalism, but it's serious enough the fbi is investigating. and since the pentagon and military have thousands of these social media accounts, officials here are confident that many more of those sites are just as vulnerable to an attack, brian. >> all r
