Security Vendor's Site Gets Hacked
Could anything else possibly fit the word "ironic" better than this?
Part of security software vendor CA's Web site was hacked earlier this week and was redirecting visitors to a malicious Web site hosted in China.
Although the problem now appears to have been corrected, cached versions of some pages in the press section of CA.com show that earlier this week the site had been redirecting visitors to the uc8010.com domain, which has been serving malicious software since late December, according to Marcus Sachs, director of the SANS Internet Storm Center.

No comment from CA in the story, so it's unknown if they were using their own products to protect the site or not.
