tttt A New Zealand based web development and hosting company has become victims to hackers after its main site and webhost site was hacked and left defaced. The company is web mate www.webmate.co.nz and the hosting website appeared to look just like the main website but on a different domain /webmatehost.co.nz. The attack happened earlier today some time and was uploaded to the zone-h website along with 2 other NewZealand based websites. The attacks have been carried out by a hacker using the handle NoEntryPhc.
