Cyber Justice Team Makes A Statement With Massive Data Leak

Posted on April 9, 2016 by Dissent

I knew if I was patient, Lee J. would analyze the data from this data dump and organize it. Today, RBS reported:

On April 6th, a twitter account using the name Cyber Justice Team posted a tweet suggesting a major hack of a Syrian governmental server had taken place and 10GB of data had been leaked as a result.

The leak includes the password file from the breached server, along with MySQL host permissions, admin passwords, and a link to the 10GB compressed file, uploaded to the file sharing site MEGA.

[…]

… our analysis shows the data appears to originate from nans.gov.sy, the Nation Agency for Network Services, and contains data from 55 Syrian domains, 25 of which being .gov.sy: 2 .org.sy; 1 com.sy and the remainder with the generic .sy. Most of the domains affected in the breach are either inactive or older domains that are no longer in use. Very few of the domains appear to be of some importance to the people of Syria.
