Microsoft Website Hacked
Microsoft Website Hacked
Microsoft’s Irish domain, Microsoft.ie, has been hacked and defaced by a group of Turkish hackers calling themselves the “terrorist crew”.
The page is used as a re director to http://www.microsoft.com/en/ie/default.aspx.
Microsoft has a history of having its websites defaced, in 2004 Microsoft.com was defaced and during 2007 Microsoft UK was defaced and hacked. Earlier this year it was revealed that thousands of sites that run Microsoft’s web server IIS had been hacked due to a SQL server injection.
According to a netcraft report, Microsoft.ie runs on Windows Server 2003 and is hosted by Novara Shared Hosting.
The following is the screenshot taken from the defaced site. The site has the message at the bottom ‘Bayraminiz Mubarek Olsun’ which means ‘Eid Mubarak’ in Turkish.
