SEA Hacks Continue With Takeover of NYT, Twitter Registrar Homepage

Melbourne IT, an Australian domain name registration, just got hijacked by the Syrian Electronic Army. It’s the same company that was implicated in Tuesday’s New York Times and Twitter hacks. The company is the domain registrar for NYTimes.com and Twitter.com, and its credentials were used to change the domain settings for the two domains. The Syrian electronic Army is taking credit for the attack. The Times and the Twitter both recovered from their hacks within a few hours and there’s no reason the Australians won’t.”]
