Another Kenyan Government’s Website Hacked

As the Kenyan top government officials are attending the connected Kenya summit ….or is it a conference, in Mombasa, another Kenyan Government ministry’s website has been hacked by “HEXBOOT3R” which seems to have a serious problem with Israel and Zionists. Hackers leave a stamp of recognition and this attack seems to have emanated from Turkey.

The hacked website belongs to national Disaster’s department in the Ministry of Special programs.

The hacker, HEXBOOT3R, has been featured in videos like below and runs even a blog to document his hacking sojourns. What is amazing and I have said it before, is that Joomla is not an effective and modern CMS to run any serious website. Joomla is best for a user who will always be checking on the website but not a government ministry or a company which only visits the website whenever they get wind that a development partner might be visiting.

This is sad. PS Ndemo do something.

Thanks Kevin for the tip.
