South Yorkshire Police (SYP) has become the latest force to fall victim to hackers.
On Sunday (June 26) the force’s website was breached by a group believed to be of Albanian origin.
It was unavailable from lunchtime until approximately 3pm that day.
During that time the front page of the site showed an image of the Albanian flag alongside the words “hacked by no-Fawk-al Kuq e zi”.
While there is no literal translation for the first part of the phrase “Kuq e zi” is Albanian for red and black – the colours of the national flag.
The page also featured the words “red and black I dress, an eagle on my chest keep my head up for the flag, it’s good to be Albanian” and included a link which directed users to a page featuring clips of the Albanian football team.
The message was later changed stating that no data had been leaked or deleted and reading: “Simple a deface page was uploaded..update your drupal version Website Currently Under Construction Albanian Hackers,” it said.
A spokesperson for SYP would not confirm how the attack was carried out, but said the force was investigating the incident. For the full article click here
