Monday, 31 January 2011 19:19 |
The hacker offered the access to some military and government web resources of the United States. From now on you do not have to be a cool hacker to be admitted to the restricted area of some government website. You should only have to find enough cash for it. The report of Imperva, the data security company, says that hacker charges not so much for the permission to enter a range of education, government and military websites. Alongside with US sites, access to the websites of Europe is on sale. The price is really nice for the excursion of this kind: just some 55 dollars is the cheapest offer. The most costly access is $499. Imperva’s blog showed the screenshots with details of the offer. The pricey option provides any person with full site admin rights of the U.S. Army in addition to the high level information access. Other option provides even MySql root access to the website.
The security specialists confirmed that this is real information and not a joke or some deception. Brian Krebs, who used to work for Washington Post before, describes the evidence in his blog post. |
