Pak hackers planning to attack Indian cyber networks
After the Mumbai terror
strikes, anti-India elements in Pakistan are now planning an attack on Indian computer
networks, intelligence agencies have warned.
Already Pakistani hackers are trying out a dry run against Indian networks through popular websites registered there after the Mumbai terror strikes, Home Ministry sources told PTI here today.
"Every time the relations between the two countries dampen, Pakistanis start attacking Indian computer networks and this has increased after the Mumbai terror attacks," a Home Ministry source said.
Pakistani hackers have created websites such as the www.Songs.Pk, which are infested with software to hack data from the targeted computers, it said.
"The website www.Songs.Pk has over 12 lakh Indian users who are downloading stuff from these websites daily," said a cyber expert in the Ministry.
With these websites being highly popular, it will take only a few minutes for the hackers to take command of over 12 lakh computers in few minutes and the number of such computers can multiply in every minute, sources said.
