WHID 2007-43: Hacker attacks the Ministry for Housing website as Spanish mortgages come under the international spotlight
Reported: 03 September 2007
Occurred: 29 August 2007

Classifications:

  • Attack Method: Unknown
  • Country: Spain
  • Outcome: Defacement
  • Vertical: Government

Yet another defacement, and as usual in the political arena. However, this one is worth a note as the attack is very targeted, while usually such political defacements are carried quote randomly against sites loosely related to the opponent and usually has little to do with the actual message the attackers want to convey. In this case the defacement seems to be a direct response to the hot debate about housing prices in Spain.
