European Police College Hacked
The website of the European Police College (CEPOL), hosted on the official domain of the European Union (cepol.europa.eu), has been defaced by hackers of OMarXarMY.
“Your system has been hacked. You must be looking for Islam,” reads a message posted by the hackers on the defacement page.
According to Cyber War News, the CEPOL website was defaced on May 26. However, the defacement page added by the hackers to the website’s “fileadmin” folder was still live at the time of writing.
In addition to defacing the website, the attackers have also leaked some database information allegedly obtained from CEPOL’s systems.
Even more worrying is a 6MB file that appears to contain the names, email addresses, and some encrypted passwords belonging to users and administrators. A total of 14,000 records have been identified in the file by Cyber War News.
