Over the past week, several websites belonging to some of the largest banks in the country have been hacked in what experts are calling one of the "biggest cyber attacks they've ever seen." As this CNN Money article points out, the websites "have all suffered day-long slowdowns and been sporadically unreachable for many customers."
According to security experts, the "denial of service" attacks, which began on Sept. 19, are the largest ever recorded.
