Well duh. There are reports of possible computer related attacks on financial firms from terrorist groups. Well if the financial firms have a decent IT department, they really don't have much to worry about. Backups, firewalls, proper security policies and more should be more then enough to thwart any attempt to attack financial firms. I deal with computer threats on a daily basis and one thing that I've noticed more then anything is that if you follow good, hardened security policies, the chances of a successful attack are slim to none.
Of course, nothing is 100% foolproof, but you can weed out almost every script kiddie out there with some simple precautions. Personally, I'd love to see a financial firm have security policies in place that state if they are attacked, attack back. Block the offending person and launch your own attack trying to get as much information about the person as possible.
