Hackers didn’t deface these websites, instead just inserted one file “ICA.html” into root folders
Reportedly this hack was launched yesterday when one server hosted at Brain Net premises (203.128.6.133) got compromised by alleged hackers.
When tried to contact Brain Net at numbers given on its website, but phone said “Ap ka Matlooba Number Tabdeel Ho giya hay”

We are yet to determine type and size of exploit that was used to root the server.
This is one of many hacking activities reported in past few months, which means it is extremely important for local hosting companies to realize the importance of web server security.
