Acer was also attacked by a hacker

After Sony’s serious dilemma, the second-largest PC maker is also in trouble.

In the recent period, Sony has suffered another cyber attack almost day by day, resulting in severe data loss (many users ’passwords and other personal information have been disclosed). After the famous Japanese giant, Acer is now on the verge of being attacked by a hacker group called the “Pakistan Cyber ​​Army”. acer-euro.com hacked on a European server. The name of this group is by no means unknown in the world of cybercrime, as they were, among others, responsible for the attack on the CBI. Perhaps unsurprisingly, a source code snippet has also been made public, which on this page can be viewed in the company of additional published images.

During the current campaign, they managed to obtain the personal data of 40.000 users from the FTP server, in addition to accessing various source codes. It’s not yet known how they got through the security areas, but in the next 24 hours, the criminals will post more details and then maybe it turned out exactly what happened. Acer has not yet commented on the matter.
