On Sunday 25th, Sikorsky’s microsite for the MH-60 helicopter www.mh-60.com has been hacked – every page on the site comes up with a black background and a HACKED message as below. In fact if you try opening it in Microsft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox it minimises the window, which then spins a few times before opening up to the message. This spin effect is not visible in Apple’s Safari or Google’s Chrome browsers. The message is then signed off in the usual way seen for hackers (and graffiti artists for that matter…) – with their “tags”.
UPDATE – Monday 26th 0330 GMT – Sikorsky have now restored the website to its normal content
