Security breach reported in N.H. computers

CONCORD, N.H. - New Hampshire's state computer system was breached, possibly by a hacker seeking residents' credit card numbers, Gov. John Lynch said Wednesday.

The breach involved online and in-person transactions in various locations, including motor vehicle offices and state liquor stores.

"We felt it was important to alert the public that there is at least the possibility that some credit card information may have been accessed," Lynch said.

No reports of illegal activity have been reported, but officials asked people who used credit cards with the state in the last six months to report suspicious purchases.

State information technology experts became aware of the breach Wednesday when they discovered illegal software in the system. The software, which may have been installed for six months, allows a hacker to watch transactions in real time, officials said.
