Trend Micro website hacked

| | Comments (0)

Asiajin reports that anti-virus software vendor, Trend Micro's website was hacked recently, and the hackers were then serving various viruses for 3 (!!!) days, March 9-12th) from the Trend Micro website. There's a statement on the Japanese website but no statement on any of the English or other language news sites.

If a security services/software firm can't keep their own web servers secured, and left their own hacked website up for 3 days, there's no logical reason to expect that their own security services are any better.

HEY TREND MICRO! DISCLOSE THE BREACH IN ENGLISH ASAP! TRYING TO HIDE THIS WON'T WORK!

The probable reason Trend Micro's website was hacked? They're running Windows 2000 (is Microsoft even supporting Windows 2000 Server anymore?)
