We return to hacking (there is good and bad, as the great Chema Alonso would say). And it is that after the commotion caused by the more than one billion accounts hacked in Yahoo. On this occasion, it has been a group known as The nine and who signs under the repertoire of phrases of Anonymous, have been in charge of circumventing the "security" of the website of the Madrid Chamber of Commerce to end up taking over your entire database. A movement that once again calls into question the online security of this type of institutional entity.
In the we of camaramadrid.es we will find the classic banner that says:
Question Everything. We are Anonymous. We are legion. We are One. Wait for us.
The team has managed to get hold of the database through the website of the chamber of commerce and has been boasting on Twitter about the feat since yesterday. They have branded the Madrid Chamber of Commerce as a "capitalist lupanar", so it may seem that political ideology may be behind this latest hack. However, we must walk with leaden feet, and Anonymous does not usually move by political initiative, but rather around social justice in any of its areas.
This group has published data on Twitter called @ La9deAnon that they have been able to access, among which we can read for example that:
CAMEFIRMA POS has made a total of € 70.481,41 in transactions during 2016.
Actually on Twitter they decided to mark the 70.000 with commas instead of periods, which makes us think that perhaps they are rather English-speaking hackersIn North America, for example, commas are used to identify thousands and millions. Meanwhile, we can once again question the security of institutional pages. If the Chamber of Commerce is like this, I do not want to imagine others such as the Ministry of Education and Science or the SEPE, which seem to have paralyzed its development in 1998.
