Irrespective of Governments grand assurances, hackers find their way to hack official websites. Even when Finance Minister of State, Anam Ramnarayan Reddy is working overnight to present State Budget in the Assembly, criminals attacked the State of Andhra Pradesh on web, hacking not one but a whopping 21of its official websites which give Govt version of the state budget. Hacker also added an additional page including URL http://budget.ap.gov.in/Dz.htm. They did not tamper with the info there but drove home the point that they are capable of going to any extent with their vast tech intelligence.
The hackers identified themselves as!-Bb0yH4cK3r_Dz-! and Hmei7. The hacked websites belonged to major government departments such as Gazette notifications, government orders, commercial taxes, GAD, horticulture, factories, remote and interior area development, etc. While one hacker!-Bb0yH4cK3r_Dz-! Added the page with URL extension of /Dz.htm the other Hmei7 added the extension /.x.htm to the original URLs.
