Anonymous: We Owned NATO ! [Image added]




NATO (Atlantic North Treaty Organization), e-Bookshop, had suffered a data breach. A hacker group called Team Inj3ct0r claimed responsible for targeting a NATO server with a private zero day exploit.

"Yes, #NATO was breached. And we have lots of restricted material. With some simple injection. In the next days, wait for interesting data," the group tweeted via the @Anonymous IRC feed.

According to the report by The Hacker News, their reasons for hacking is the development and financing of nuclear weapons. The documents contain budget information for a new Joint Communications Control Center (JCCC) within the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), a NATO-led mission in Afghanistan. Various other Anonymous-affiliated accounts claimed to have lifted a gigabyte worth of data from NATO servers, so presumably more document releases are on the way.


By way of evidence of the hack , AnonymousIRC has released two PDF documents,also posted links to two documents.

1.The first, dated 2007 and marked “Nato Restricted”, purports to be a working paper on communication systems at the Joint Communications Control Centre for ISAF forces in Afganistan. It includes detailed procurement estimates and technical information.

2.The second document, dated 2008 and also marked “Nato Restricted”, covers proposals for outsourcing communications systems for Nato forces in Kosovo.

Anonymous also warned NATO not to "make the mistake of challenging Anonymous.


According to theregister.co.uk 
"NATO members were warned last month of increasing threats from hackivist group Anonymous. Looks like their advice was right."

The hackers have attacked websites including those of the CIA and SOCA, and infiltrated networks belonging to Sony, security companies and the broadcaster Fox. Earlier this week LulzSec hacked into The Sun newspaper website and published a fake news story claiming Rupert Murdoch had died of metal poisoning.
