So much for security... Wonder how many other cyber casinos got hit.

Fortunately these are only webpages which are hacked, not the software. With rare exception, most of these sites are running Microsoft IIS - needless to say, absolutely insecure even when you keep up with the latest updates on a daily basis.

Doesn't mean that *nix servers can't be hacked, but they are usually quite rare and usually through some other software, not the operating system itself.

This guy has been extremely busy, according to http://www.zone-h.org/en/defacements...r=eno7/page=1/ , he has hacked several hundred websited. Jackpotsinaflash.com and some other casinos were also among the victims. All the affected sites were running Microsoft IIS on Windows 2000 or 2003.

Do you know if particular sites were targeted? Did they all have something in common, like donating money to Bush or something?

Fair play to the guy if they did, seems a bit strange otherwise but can't disagree with the sentiment.

I think he just looked for vulnerable websites.

I dont know much about this hacker, but it looks like he is not a cracker. he hacks then explain on the bottom of the homepage. in the case of this sreenshot, "fix your bugs" is written on the bottom. he is getting a reputation now it looks like but not as a cracker, or did I miss something else (this is the first time I heard of him, dont know if he damage or crack any websites in the past).

In this case, someone might've wanted to download the casino software, and couldn't because of some script kiddie getting his jollies... Even if he had written "fix your bugs" on their current home page, it still qualifies as causing damage.

or prevented someone from downloading thier software that have lots of security problems (which in this case they do), real money are invovle here, hopefully Mummy's God Casino fix their network security.

next time, it's not just a homepage that crackers will try to crack, lots of bank and customer infos they really want to get a hold on. Mummy got lucky on this one.

not trying to defend this hacker, but looks like he is the typical hacker that that will hack website and tell them whats wrong with thier networks. crackers are the ones that networkers are really tryin gto look for, they are dangerious and deadly.
