Enterprise solution company Intentia filed criminal charges with the Swedish Criminal Investigation Department against Reuters on Monday, October 28 after posting this announcement on their site on October 26.
According to this Wired article, Intentia claims that an unauthorized entry into their server occurred during which time a Reuters news reporter obtained access to the company’s current corporate information report, for which a link had yet to be provided on their public website.
ZDNet Australia reports that Reuters contends there was no theft or malicious act, but rather that their reporter obtained the information from Intentia’s web site by guessing the correct url for the document.
