Indian and Pakistani hackers are locked in a cyber war.
Indian, Pak hackers deface govt websites
Wed-Nov 26, 2008
Islamabad / Press Trust of India
Indian and Pakistani hackers are engaged in a round of tit-for-tat defacing of government-run websites of the two countries, targeting such major organisations as India's oil and gas major ONGC and its Pakistani counterpart OGRA.
The cyber warfare began in mid-November when an Indian group of hackers known as HMG or "Guards of Hindustan" defaced the website of Pakistan's Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority and deleted all its data.
The move created a buzz in cyberspace as HMG had earlier hacked a number of Pakistani communities on the social networking website Orkut.
Apparently acting in retaliation, a group calling itself the Pakistan Cyber Army (PCA) on Tuesday hacked five Indian websites, including those of ONGC, Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS), Indian Railways and the Kendriya Vidyalaya in Ratlam.
While the websites of ONGC and Indian Railways were quickly restored, the IIRS website is still blank. In a message posted briefly on the ONGC website, PCA said the hacking was carried out in retaliation for the hacking of the OGRA website.
"Back off, go read some course books, else you will lose both, your name and this game. We will literally smoke your doors off like other groups did before," said the message from PCA.
Responding quickly to the actions of the PCA, HMG took control of the website of Kendriya Vidyalaya in Ratlam. The website still features a message from HMG asking the site owner to fix its "flaws."
"Ur site was hacked by Pakistani hackers, now ur site is in our Indian hackers' control," said the message from HMG.
After internet usage became popular in the Indian subcontinent in the early 1990s, Indian and Pakistani hackers including those based in the West often engaged in tit-for-tat defacing of websites of both countries.
Those activities subsided after a few years. Hackers cannot control a website permanently even if they break into it.
They usually post a fake page on a hacked website.
Ironically, PCA has asked Indian authorities to take action against HMG for hacking Pakistani websites "or get ready for more action."

gr8 job ICW you people have done a very splendid task caz it happens in past that some pakistanies hackers down the indian sites this time they will realize
We all are witnessing since a long time
Hacking of Indian websites by Pakistani Hackers/defacers or
so called PCA (Pakistan Cyber Army). So we have to come forward to reply
them back.
This is where we come to the aid of our Bharat Mata's integrity.
We cannot see anyone raising a finger against BHARAT MATA.
we have decided that if PCA continues to deface our indian govt site , we
ICW (Indian Cyber Warriors) will do the same to show them what we are
capable of and
what we can do united.
We are defacing pakistani sites to convey our message to the people and
leaders of pakistan to stop this act of supporting and funding terrorists, and
stop killing
inosent civilians. If they want a war, then dont be a coward and stop hiding
behind proxies, come forward and our Indian Military will show u the true
taste of war, the same way we showed u during kargil.
Bombay blast , killing innocent people. What are they getting ?
PCA(pakistan cyber army) hacked many indian website and added much
porn stuff.
As a Result we are hacking there sites , some of them are:-
1)http://chingaree.com
2) http://healthnwfp.gov.pk
3) http://happybox.com.pk
4) http://mission-alnoor.org
5) http://www.pimsat-khi.edu.pk
6) http://hrn.com.pk/newsdetail.php?id=90
And the list will keep on increasing untill they STOP.
We are just giving PCA what they wanted.
we are doing it for country's pride not for one individual's
We are not doing this for fame , we'r just ending the game started by them.
We need support , just support , Not much but we want atleast INDIA is with
us.
regards,
ICW ( Indian Cyber Warriors )
