Another government owned website was hacked yesterday to mock the automated poll for May, 2010 election. This is the 5th government website that was hacked since the attack last month which started with hacking of DOH official website. The hacker or hackers took on a bolder approach by leaving a message that seemed to mock the upcoming automated elections.
Hackers of the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (Tesda) Official Website leave a message that says, ‚ÄúAno ba gagamitin sa Election? Blade server? Juniper Firewall (what is going to be used in the elections? Blade server? Juniper firewall)?”
The hacked Tesda Web site also showed a black and white illustration of a man giving the ‚Äúdirty finger” supposedly directed against several ‚Äúabusive” military and police units.
A pair of bulging eyeballs also followed the pointer anywhere on the page, and background music was also set up on the site’s second web page to which it automatically transfers.
Aside from the derisive reference to the May elections, message of sympathy to a slain communist rebel and a potshot against an alleged abusive police officer also replaced the original contents of the site.
