The United Nation (UN)’s Maldives website has been defaced by internet ‘hacktivists’ Anonymous.
Maldives Anonymous, who claimed responsibility for the hack, posted a large image on the UN homepage stating that the group had exposed the website’s weak security.
“You have been hacked. We are here. Your security is zero. System is pwned and owned by Anonymous.MV404,” the message reads. “Don’t hate me for this. Your security made me do this.”
A post on Anonymous Maldives’ Facebook page, calls for the UN to “update its security” following the attack.
Anonymous is a loosely associated international group of hackers that claims to strongly oppose internet censorship and surveillance.
Formed in 2003, the group has hacked into a number of government computer systems across the world.
