On Monday, the Twitter avatar of the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) was replaced with the picture of a masked militant, the flag of the Islamic State group and the message "I love you isis."
Whoever took control of CENTCOM's account then started tweeting generic threats to U.S. military personnel, posting screenshots of random unclassified military documents — and a picture of a goat in a military office. While embarrassing, the Pentagon brass quickly dismissed the hack as nothing more than "cybervandalism," or a "cyberprank."
