Possible ISIS group hacks into 2 local websites

Posted on March 8, 2015 by Dissent

KSDK staff report:

Two local websites are back up and running after they were hacked by a group that claimed to be the Middle East terror organization ISIS.

The two companies that were impacted were MERS Goodwill and a local digital agency named Elasticity. Early Friday morning, web users who went to the site saw a black screen that with a logo in Arabic that read, “There is no God, but God”. Below that, words in English also said “hacked by Islamic State, we are everywhere.”

At this point, the Department of Homeland Security still will not comment as to whether the pair were actually attacked by ISIS or an impostor.
