Twitter hacked and down for a few hours. Twitter was hacked at 2200 PCT (0600 GMT) which led to users being redirected to a page showing a message declaring it had been hacked by the Iranian Cyber Army.

A group claiming to be the Iranian Cyber Army managed to redirect Twitter users to its own site displaying a political message.

Twitter said the attack had been carried out by getting at the servers that tell web browsers where to find particular sites.

In English, the Iranian Cyber Army wrote: “This site has been hacked by Iranian Cyber Army. U.S.A think they controlling [sic] and managing internet by their access, but they don’t, we control and manage internet by our power so do not try to stimulation (sic) Iranian People To…..
Now Which Country is embargo list? Iran? Usa?
We push them in embargo list ; )
Take care.”

For the third time this year, Twitter was the victim of a security breach stemming from a simple end-run around its defenses.

Who is Iranian Cyber Army?

There is no evidence at this time that Iran or Hezbollah is behind the attack because the investigation is still going on.
