(lb/NG) Twenty-six security breaches have been found during an audit of the Belgian company Electrabel, which operates the nuclear power plants Tihange (approximately 150km from Luxembourg) and Doel.

The two nuclear power plants had been tested for data protection, and it turns out that documents on security codes for access to the plants and their Internet servers are not adequately protected, according to the Wednesday edition of the Belgian daily "Sudpresse".
