They attack the Amaq website, belonging to Daesh and steal more than 2.000 email accounts

The Amaq website, set up by Daesh, has been hacked and more than 2.000 email accounts have been obtained from users subscribed to the bulletin of this terrorist group's propaganda website.

Today is the day when it is certified that the group of 'hacktivists' of Anonymous have been completely ridiculed, since another group of hacktivists called Di5s3nSi0N, has attacked the Daesh website, which would have been recently reviewed, after suffering several attacks . The activist group has commented on the operation that it has been "too easy". This operation has made it possible to obtain more than 2.000 email addresses of the users who are part of the newsletter on the Amaq website.

Amaq is a Daesh propaganda website that was launched in August 2014. This is not a website linked to jihadism, but it has become the main source of information dissemination about the actions of the terrorist group. This page would have suffered different attacks in recent weeks and to avoid the attacks, they would have supposedly improved its security and also avoided via email attacks, in addition to other possible threats. The group of hacktivists has launched a direct attack on the servers, to see if this website is so secure.

Through this attack, they have managed to steal information from the server where Amaq is hosted and they have decided to send an email to the different email accounts they have obtained. The more than 2.000 email accounts that have been obtained through this portal, used by the jihadists to claim responsibility for the attacks, have been verified. This is just a new attack on a website with the intention of stealing data in order to attack this group and the little support they have. Daesh has started to operate on Telegram, since it is a very secure messaging service, with very strict encryption and difficult to hack.
