Academic Association Representing Internet Studies Gets Hacked

Nonprofit

As of March 6, the website of the Association of Internet Researchers showed visitors a bare white screen, with tiny characters at the top, reading, “Hacked by D3v!l Qu33n.”

No malicious code was detected at the time. A Twitter user already has notified the association’s Twitter handle. “The World of Academia can be a dangerous place,” Malwarebytes reports.
