WSJ: U.K. Detects 'Talk' About Internet Terror Attack

British intelligence picked up "talk" from terrorists planning an Internet-based attack against the U.K.'s national infrastructure, a British official said, as the government released a long-awaited report on cyber security.
Terrorists have for some time used the Internet to recruit, spread propaganda and raise funds.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity and didn't say when the infrastructure threat was detected and how it was dealt with.
