13:48 Company chronopay regained hijacked domain chronopay com | |
The domain name chronopay.com, the theft of which the company ChronoPay (owner of an online processing system with the same title) became known on Monday, returned to the rightful owner. If someone does not know - was recently a post about Chronopay and it was reported that the hacked database, but this was not the case - only the domain was hijacked. Now chronopay.com site is under the control of the company ChronoPay. Domain chronopay.com was returned to the registrar directNIC Thursday 12/30/2010 (attackers stole the domain chronopay.com, immediately changed the company, domain registrar to another, namely - Network Solutions). At the moment website ChronoPay at chronopay.com available. Current status of the domain in the internal system logger - «high security transfer prohibited». This means that the registrar directNIC take special measures to ensure the safety domain. To date, performance site ChronoPay fully restored. Operative in this situation, the company responded to directNIC, Network Solutions and Amazon (Amazon is hosting malicious site was created after the hijacking of the domain). Domain was "taken away" on Monday night by unknown hackers who are supposed to use a vulnerability in the registrar directNIC. After the hijacking of a domain, on Monday attackers placed on the main page shronopay.com text, ostensibly on behalf of the company, which reported the theft of personal customer data on-line processing system. Many media expounded a blatantly forged precisely this information. Hackers stole the domain, have resorted to fraud, creating a stolen domain fake page payment, and thus stealing credit card numbers of 800 people. Information Security believe that a database with credit card numbers, which by means ChronoPay paid for online purchases, has been and remains secure, that the sole purpose of intruders was the credibility of the company ChronoPay, and that this goal is achieved, at least partially. Personalities attackers, unfortunately, has not yet been established. For reference: ChronoPay - Russia's largest on-line processing system. In December, in an interview with the founder of Forbes ChronoPay Paul Wroblewski stated that the company owns 45% of the domestic market of card online payments. | |
