A London man has pleaded not guilty to a charge of attempting to hack into a charity website set up to raise money for victims of the Asian tsunami disaster.
Daniel James Cuthbert, 28, from Whitechapel in East London, has been charged with one offence under section one of the Computer Misuse Act following what police called an "unauthorised" attempt to access the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) website on New Year's Eve.
The alleged hack was detected immediately and the Metropolitan Police notified, which led to Cuthbert's arrest on 20 January.
He was officially charged by the police last week following the examination of computer equipment seized during a search of his home.
Cuthbert pleaded not guilty this morning at Horseferry Road Magistrates court in London and has been released on unconditional bail until April pending submission to the court of a report by an IT security expert witness.
