Zamaneh averts another hacking attempt

Iranian Cyber Army's threatening message

Another attack from the so-called “Iranian Cyber Army” against Radio Zamaneh was averted by the Zamaneh team. In the past few days, the hackers had been trying to get into the Radio’s web server to stop Zamaneh’s web activities.

Following the failed attempt, the “Iranian Cyber Army” sent a threatening message to a number of Radio Zamaneh collaborators and audience boasting: “Do not imagine that you can be secure in any corner of cyber space!” They also threaten that if Zamaneh does not cease its activities, they will reveal their “data.”

Two weeks ago, Radio Zamaneh’s website was hacked into by the Iranian Cyber Army but returned to its normal activities after a two-day lapse.

The group that goes by the name of “Iranian Cyber Army” has not yet been officially identified, but the possibility of their having ties to the Islamic Republic has been suggested by many sources.

Beside Radio Zamaneh website, Mowjcamp, Twitter, Baidu, Amir Kabir Newsletter and Mohsen Sazgara websites have also been hacked by this group.

The reformist website, Jaras also announced today that they have received a similar threatening message from the “Iranian Cyber Army.”
