Swedish hacker hacks into key Indian defence websites and emails

TIMES Now is terribly excited to report that the Swedish hacker, Dan Egarstam has hacked into several Indian embassy websites and some emails of National Defence Academy (NDA) & DRDO officials. They go on to declare proudly that they were able to access several of these email ids and is now is possession of some purchase records of NDA.
First of all it is only apt that the hacker calls his website ‘Deranged Security’ which seems to be the case looking at the appalling online security awareness from officials of a nation which prides itself as an IT hub. Secondly, we have to wait and see if it is within the law for TIMES Now to use a hackers website to access India’s highly confidential documents pertaining to national security and then brag about it in public. Well at least, it will be a wake up call for some of these officials.
