ndian software giant Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. (TCS) has witnessed the hijacking of its official website www.tcs.com. The hackers not only attacked the website but also allegedly changed its domain name and put it up for sale!The hackers posted a "For Sale" message on the site, written both in French and English. The hack is believed to be a DNS Redirect rather than a full-fledged one. This is similar to the one that rocked Twitter last year
This attack raises a lot of questions on the Indian IT industry and the overall Internet security in the country. If top IT firms cannot create a hacker-proof website, what more can we say?
However, the website has now been restored and is working fine.
