Hackers deface 5th govt Web site, mock automated polls
Another government Web site was found defaced Sunday night – the fifth attack since last month.
Hackers of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda) Web site, however, took on a bolder approach by leaving a message that seemed to mock the upcoming automated elections.
“Ano ba gagamitin sa Election? Blade server? Juniper Firewall (what is going to be used in the elections? Blade server? Juniper firewall)?” the message read.
Before Tesda’s, hackers had also victimized the Web sites of the Department of Health (DOH), Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD), National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC), and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE).
Malacañang has expressed alarm over the series of hacking attacks on government Web sites, saying it raises new concerns about the security of the automated elections in May.
