Yamaha Motor's Official Website of Six Different Countries Hacked By Dark Snipper
Yamaha, Japanese multinational corporation; widely known to us for manufacturing motorcycles and power sports equipment, have fallen victim in front of hackers. A newly formed hacker group calling themselves "Dark Snipper" targeted several websites of Yamaha. This round of cyber attack has blown Six Yamaha websites from different countries like Bosnia Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Slovenia & Serbia. According to sources a few hackers code named 'Soul Inj3ct0r, P4K-CoMManDeR, Error Haxor, Dream.Killer, X3o-1337 & SOG' mainly from Pakistan took responsibility of the hack. So far the reason of the attack is not clear, but still the deface page is saying that the attack was inspired by the cause of "Free Palestine". But it is very irrelevant that, why the hacker group targeted Yamaha, as there is hardly any relation between the cause of Gaza, Palestine and Yamaha. What ever! Yamaha authority and the cyber response team immediately recovered those hacked sites by deleting the hacker's page (as shown in the picture below) and patched the security hole.
It is come to our concern that, team 'Dark Snipper' managed to get access into Yamaha server, where all those domain were hosted, and that is why it became possible for the hackers to breach all those Yamaha sites. But, Yamaha did not passed any reaction after the breach.
