The Punishment for Lax Security: Two Decades of Audits
http://www.cio.com/archive/070106/tl_privacy.html

"Nations Holding, a real estate company operating in 44 states, must  
improve its information security practices and submit to biennial  
security audits for the next 20 years under a settlement with the  
Federal Trade Commission."


This "looks" like a web hack as described:

"The FTC charged that the company had allowed a common Web attack to  
compromise customer data"
