Is this kind of hacking a routine thing or is this something we should all be concerned about? These guys seem mighty proud of their achievements. oohi ashu ktm,nepal

This kind of attacks are made possible by negligence of site administrator. One of my friend, who works for one of the ISP in Nepal, said to me one day that he got an anonymous email from Australia saying that his system is vulnerable. But he didn't took any precautions. After some days, he found that his password files are deleted. Site administrator in Nepali ISPs donot take comprehensive security precautions. First, they shouldnot let many unwanted ports open to outside world. Second, they should continuously monitor whether any IP address is scanning its ports. There are lots of other securiyt measure to take before making site accessible to outside world. In US, if someone is found scanning port, s/he may be prosecuted. But Nepal has not IT law. So, it is easier to do that in Nepal. Dedicated people with Internet access and compute knowledge can do these kind of mischiefs. And after such incident, we should expect more of this in near future also.

Heard that a nepali guy was arrested on charges of hacking (the incident of nepali websites being hacked 2 weeks ago) by Nepali police. Does anyone know more about this? BTW, they have a press release on this site. http://www.ysgnet.com/hn/
