Syrian Electronic Army Hacks the Outbrain service; Washington Post, CNN suffers

SocialFlow, a social media optimization platform was hacked by Syrian Electronic Army and readers on certain stories being redirected to the site of the group. The hackers also claimed to have access to Outbrain’s email box. The people behind the pro-Assad SEA have long been a mystery, and is made up primarily of nine college students, all of whom are living in Syria. The breach now seems to be secured and the hackers blocked out, but we are keeping the service down for a little longer until we can be sure it’s safe to turn it back on.
