Waiting for the end of cyber war

Vijay Mallya has become the new victim of the cyber war going in between the Pakistan hackers and the Indian hackers. We have seen many websites being hacked by the Pakistani hackers before, but most of the times they are private websites. This time the Pakistani hackers targeted the Vijay Mallya’s website and posted warning messages to the Indians.

The message “This is payback from Pak Cyber Army in return to the defacements of Pakistan sites!” appeared on Vijay Mallya’s official website and it has shocked many of his website followers. Even Vijay Mallya was shocked to see his website hacked.

“My website – http://mallyainparliament.in/ hacked by the Pakistan Cyber Army. Shocked when I opened site to update it. Saw the Pakistan flag and threats !” Vijay Mallya shared his views on this incident to his Facebook followers.

Vijay Mallya website is now back to normal and the web experts at Mallya’s end have restored the site back to its normal position.

Cyber war is sort of a worry for many people living in India, and even in the Pakistan. The hackers normally used to hack the government and other prominent websites. But the now the ‘hacking kids’ are hacking mostly the private websites which has got nothing to do with Indo-Pak clashes.

There are sufferers from both the ends, i.e. from Indian side and even the Pakistan side. This is a continuous process, chain reaction! It’s “You hack – I hack” sort of fight, and let’s see if this has an end or not!
