The Icann staff has
been attacked by using spoofing emails, as the result the staff handing over
login names and passwords, as Digital Marketing Agency
reported.
By this way, Hackers
have managed to penetrate the network used by the organization that oversees
the net.
One more thing said
spoofed emails were used to reach an internal network and then the attackers
have used this access to steal lists of contact and login information for
people who control some of the net's most popular domains.
Leading to Icann said,
“It had notified people that their data may have gone astray and asked them to
change their passwords”.
In a blogpost, Icann
said that some of its staff was tricked into opening booby-trapped email
messages sent by attackers that were crafted to look like they came from other
employees.
