On the last page of the report it mentions many people working on it, but unaware of the final product, but with the team being rewarded. It also mentions a codeword to decrypt source information that they'll release should the team be threatened. As the team met with the company, the company may well have identified them by now, or narrowed it down.

The team obviously (re)branded themselves Anonymous to take any heat off their own identities or firm, whilst also giving the report a publicity boost within the context of the newly setup http://anonanalytics.com/ http://anonanalytics.com/ - they also have some technical know-how to encrypt the data: that may have come from more conventional Anon members. Also, being part of Anonymous may scare the target firm's executives into not retaliating - that's smart.

It's not like anyone is an official member. > Also, being part of Anonymous may scare the target firm's executives into not retaliating - that's smart. It is. Attacking them will look like attacking Wikileaks and will only strengthen Anonymous's cred, legal and otherwise.
