Anonymous Defaces Panda Security Site

Posted by Unknown on from the it's-anonymous-cowards-all-the-way-down dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Surviving members of anonymous and/or lulzsec have hacked Panda Security's systems and defaced their site. Looks like revenge is coming back." El Reg has screenshots of the defacement. Panda Security says the intruders only managed to exploit the web server and did not compromise their internal networks.

      You're excluding a significant group: those who appreciate irony. I mean, it's a security company. You'd expect them to know how to secure a Web server (or to choose a quality hosting service if they don't run it themselves).

      You don't find that amusing?

    So why hack panda?

    If it really was anonymous, who's a loose group of hackers trying to change/make things better, what was their goal?

      Because they could and no one had paid attention to them (Anonymous) in a while.

    I would hate to be a member of a company who is supposed to focused on security and got hacked by script kiddies. I would say it isn't good for business but the majority of their customers wouldn't know or care.
