---------------------------
Verton said the unit's capabilities are highly classified, but he believes they can destroy networks and penetrate enemy computers to steal or manipulate data. He said they may also be able to set loose a worm to take down command-and-control systems so the enemy is unable to communicate and direct ground forces, or fire surface-to-air missiles, for example.

One story widely reported, but never confirmed, described how a team of military ops was dropped into Serbia, and after cutting a wire leading to a major radar hub, planted a device that emitted phantom targets on Serb radar.

what's funny, is that most armies still have manual systems to backup their electronic and keep hard copies.

The US Government/Military will get their hands on anything they can correlate with security and attack methodologies, so this doesn't come as a complete surprise but it's interesting to actually read about it. Let's not forget about the MK-Ultra and other projects of the late 60's and early 70's involving mind control and psychic warfare. I can only imagine where they're at now with that subject.
