  Apple's Computers Attacked by Hackers

  Apple Inc. said some employee computers were infiltrated by hackers, adding to the wave of companies recently reporting cyber attacks.

  苹果公司(Apple Inc.)说,部分员工电脑被黑客入侵,如此一来,近段时间反映网络攻击的公司又多了一个。

  The company said in a statement Tuesday that the issue affected a 'small number' of Mac users and it hadn't found any evidence that customer data had left Apple. A person familiar with the matter said the malware was the same that was used to target Facebook Inc., which some security experts said last week appeared to be traced back to China.

  苹果周二发表声明说,这一事件影响了“少量”Mac用户,未发现任何证据表明有客户数据离开过苹果。一位知情人士说,这次攻击所用恶意软件与用来攻击Facebook Inc.的软件相同。一些安全专家上周说,后者似乎来自中国。

  'The malware was employed in an attack against Apple and other companies, and was spread through a website for software developers,' the Apple statement read.

  苹果的声明说,恶意软件被用来攻击苹果和其他公司,是通过一个软件开发者网站散布的。

  Apple said it is working with law enforcement to find the source of the malware and would release a software update to protect Mac users. The malware worked by targeting a software plug-in.

  苹果表示正与执法部门合作寻找恶意软件的源头,并将发布软件更新保护Mac用户。恶意软件是通过攻击一款插件发挥作用的。

  An Apple spokesman declined to comment about the timing of the attack.

  苹果发言人拒绝就这次攻击的时机置评。

  In its statement, Apple said the malware targeted the Java plug-in for browsers. It noted that Apple's Mac operating system disables Java if it hasn't been used for 35 days.

  苹果在声明中说,恶意软件攻击的是浏览器的Java插件。它提到,如果35天没有使用,Java就会被苹果的Mac操作系统禁用。

  Facebook last week disclosed that it was targeted by a sophisticated hacking attempt that hit several laptops on the company's network. That company also said there was no evidence user data was compromised.

  Facebook上周披露,它遭到一次复杂的黑客攻击,公司网络上的多台笔记本电脑遭袭。Facebook还表示没有证据显示有用户数据遭到窃取。
