New Delhi:
The website of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) was
hacked by a group identifying itself as the 'Pakistani Cyber
Army', which also claimed to have hacked the server of the
National Informatics Centre (NIC) website.
The investigation agency confirmed that its website was hacked and
that they had no idea who was behind this cyber attack.
A CBI official told IANS Saturday: "Our website was hacked last
(Friday) night by unidentified hackers. They had posted a message
which read 'Pakistan Zindabad' there. Although, our website is not
hacked often but now that it has happened, a meeting is being held
in a couple of hours and we will decide the due course of action.
As of now, we have no idea who is behind this."
While the banner and index of the website, which was hacked Friday
night, is intact, the group has posted a message, mocking India's
premier investigating agency. The website was down Saturday
morning as well.
The message read: "This attempt is in response to the Pakistani
websites hacked by 'Indian Cyber Army'. We told u before too...we
are sleeping but not dead."
"Back off kids or we will smoke ur doors off like we did
before...let us see what you investigating agency so called CBI
can do," it further said.
The group also said that they had hacked into the root server of
the National Informatics Centre (NIC), which maintains most of the
government websites.
The hackers concluded their message with "Pakistan Zindabad".
According to Pakistani daily Express Tribune, 200 Indian websites
were hacked Friday.
