U.S. Lawmakers Scrambled to Secure a Deal on Raising the Debt Ceiling, with Time Running Short Before a Potential Default on August 2 JULY 29, 2011 U.S. lawmakers scrambled to secure a deal on raising the debt ceiling, with time running short before a potential default on August 2. The Federal Reserve began to prepare guidance to banks on how to handle a potential default or credit downgrade. A congressional panel began looking into whether the Obama administration tried to unduly influence Standard & Poor's before the credit rater revised its outlook on the U.S. debt rating to negative. The SEC adopted rules that could help avoid a future flash crash, and Britain warned Germany and other European Union partners not to dilute new bank capital rules.

  • Will the Sec Survive Financial Regulatory Reform?
    WILL THE SEC SURVIVE FINANCIAL REGULATORY REFORM? Renee M. Jones* A BSTRACT The Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) conspicuous failures during the financial crisis of 2008 have led many to question the agency’s relevance in the modern financial era. Some commentators have called for the creation of new super-agencies to assume a substantial portion of the SEC’s duties. Others highlight enforcement failures and question the agency’s commitment to its investor protection mission. Despite its recent missteps and persistent calls for regulatory overhaul, the SEC’s future seems secure for now as President Obama’s reform proposals (the “Obama Plan”) as currently conceived preserve the agency’s independence. Although thus far the Obama Plan protects the SEC’s status as an independent agency, several aspects of the plan threaten the agency’s long- term prospects. The proposal to expand the executive branch’s role in oversight over financial institutions may represent the beginning of an incremental encroachment on SEC authority. Similarly, the proposed Consumer Financial Protection Agency could absorb a portion of the SEC’s traditional investor protection role. In the end, the SEC’s survival depends on whether its leadership takes effective action to restore its credibility and regain the public trust in the years to come. I. INTRODUCTION The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is currently under siege. Its once stellar reputation has been tarnished by a series of inauspicious events that unfolded during the financial meltdown of 2008. The agency’s passivity during the collapse of Bear Stearns, its failure to detect Bernard Madoff’s massive fraud, and the failure of the Consolidated Supervised Entity program for financial conglomerates have led many to question the agency’s competence and relevance in the era of modern globalized financial markets.1 * Associate Professor, Boston College Law School.

As we create and expand more and more data within our interconnected electronic universe, the threat that they bring to its fragile structure grows as well. However Anonymous is not the only group of hackers/activists or hacktivists that have made their presence known. LulzSec was a group that wreaked havoc with information systems in 2011. This will be a case study examination of their activities so that a better understanding of five aspects can be obtained: the Timeline of activities, the Targets of attack, the Tactics the group used, the makeup of the Team and a category which will be referred to as The Twist for reasons which will be made clear at the end of the paper. Keywords: LulzSec, Hackers, Security, AntiSec, Anonymous, Sabu INTRODUCTION Information systems lie at the heart of our modern existence. We deal with them when we work, when we play and when we relax; texting, checking email, posting on Facebook, Tweeting, gaming, conducting e-commerce and e- banking have become so commonplace as to be nearly invisible in modern life. Yet, within each of these electronic interactions lies the danger that the perceived line of security and privacy might be breached and our most important information and secrets might be revealed and exploited.
