ISIS hackers have infringed tens of thousands of Twitter accounts, including CIA and FBI members, as revenge for the attack on an unmanned US aircraft that killed a British ISIS extremist in August.
Cyber Caliphate, a hacker group set up by her member ISIS Junaid Hussain, called on her supporters and followers to hack Twitter accounts in order to avenge Hussain's death.
As a result, hackers have breached over 54.000 accounts on Twitter. Most of the accounts targeted by the jihadists appear to be from Saudi Arabia although some of them are British.
Οι εξτρεμιστές όχι μόνο παραβίασαν χιλιάδες λογαριασμούς του Twitter, αλλά κατάφεραν να αποκτήσουν πρόσβαση σε προσωπικές information, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των αριθμών τηλεφώνων και των κωδικών access, of the heads of:
- The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)
