ICANN And IANA Defaced
Author: Dave Lewis
Well, I have to admit I only just saw this one this morning. Since it’s a long weekend(ish) here in Canada I wasn’t planning on updating the site until Wednesday. This one is something worth sharing. I figured I’d pass it along.
A group calling itself “NetDevilz” defaced the homepages for ICANN & IANA.
Ouch.
From Websense:
Websense® Security Labs™ has received reports that the official website of ICANN and IANA Domains have been hijacked by a Turkish group called “NetDevilz”. ICANN and IANA are responsible for the Internet Protocol (IP) address space allocation, protocol identifier assignment, generic (gTLD) and country code Top Level Domain Name System management, and root server system management functions.
For the full advisory please read on.
