Broadwing Communications essentially threw Hezbollah off of the Internet this week. It came after the discovery that terror propaganda was linking to the company's network.
It wasn't Hezbollah bombs or rockets that hit Austin-based Broadwing Communications this week.
"It is alarming," Donovan Dillon with Broadwing Communications said.
It was cyber-terrorism.
"We certainly do understand that these threats do exist," Dillon said.
In an exclusive interview, Broadwing executives told us how Al Manar TV, the propaganda arm of the Lebanese terror organization was able to get on the Internet. It was done by hijacking the Web service of one of Broadwing's customers linking Al Manar to a Broadwing Internet address.
