Hundreds of Network Solutions Sites Hacked
Summary: Network Solutions acknowledged that hackers broke into its Unix servers via a file-inclusion weakness and defaced hundreds of customer web sites, replacing home pages with anti-Israeli messages, images of masked militants, and the tag "HaCKed by CWkomando." The company said it was helping customers restore their sites and that no personally identifiable or secure information was at risk, while a prior break-in last summer compromised more than 573,000 debit and credit card accounts.
What you should know: The same provider had already exposed more than 573,000 card accounts in a previous breach, and customers here report their sites were hacked, restored, and hacked again within days - so the hosting provider's server weakness, not the customer's code, is the single point of failure for every site it holds.
