The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis’ widely used data and research website [aka FRED] was hacked, but the regional central bank’s internal systems were not compromised, the St. Louis Fed said Wednesday.
The regional central bank said in a statement, “On April 24, 2015, computer hackers manipulated routing settings at a domain name service vendor used by the St. Louis Fed so that they could automatically redirect some of the Bank’s web traffic that day to rogue webpages they created to simulate the look of the St. Louis Fed’s research.stlouisfed.org website.”
