The official website of the Ogun State government (www.https://www.ogunstate.gov.ng) has been compromised by hackers.
Checks by this news publication showed that the hackers who identified themselves as Aliester Crowley left a note on the website which reads, “Update your security! Greetings from the Maldives”
The hackers also inserted a link to a Youtube page, @AliesterCrowleyMV, where videos of other website takeovers are posted, including some belonging to the Mexican government.
The Youtube page also contains some hacking tips and tricks, including authentication bypass, remote code execution and reverse engineering.
