<p>  Recently a group of <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pakistani-hackers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pakistani Hackers">Pakistani hackers</a> known to be operating  to hack Indian government and other known sites hacked into <a target="_blank" href="http://www.kvrtm.org.in/">Kendriya Vidyalaya</a> which was in reaction to OGRA&rsquo;s website,  which was hacked by Indian in reaction to some other sites which were hacked by  <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pakistani-hackers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pakistani Hackers">Pakistani hackers</a>&hellip;</p>
<p>A message on one such site which was hacked by Pakistani group read that they are back active now and India should expect to see more and more sites being defaced. That&#8217;s not a good news is it, not for government authorities or even for Indian <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/hacking/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hacking">hacking</a> groups who respond to such activities, it just means more work!</p>
<p><strong>  Here is a list of sites hacked by <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pakistani-hackers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pakistani Hackers">Pakistani hackers</a>  recently:</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-2509"></span></p>

<li><a target="_blank" href="http://aponline.gov.in/">aponline.gov.in</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Indian hackers are not behind in any sense, they have been  <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/hacking/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Hacking">hacking</a> and reclaiming hacked sites in response to their counterparts in  Pakistan.</p>
<p>  AndhraHackers group reclaimed the Kendriya Vidyalaya site  and left a message for <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pakistani-hackers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pakistani Hackers">Pakistani Hackers</a> and also a left a piece of advice for Indian  authorities to fix it soon.</p>
<p>  Following is the screenshot from the site that is now  reclaimed by the Indian group.</p>
<p><img width="496" height="202" border="0" alt="Reclaimed Site" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/indian-hackers.png" /></p>
<p>  I am sure this is not the end of it and there are many more  to come. Indian and Pakistanis will always be after each other online or  offline.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img height="74" border="0" align="left" width="85" alt="Pacemaker Hackable" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/pacemaker.gif" />A team of students and researches lead by Kevin Fu, an associate professor at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and director of the Medical Device Security Center, figured out how a <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pacemaker/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pacemaker">pacemaker</a> can be accessed remotely for all the wrong reasons.<br />
<blockquote><font class="content">A <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pacemaker/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pacemaker">pacemaker</a> uses batteries to send electrical impulses to the heart to help it pump properly. An electrode is placed next to the heart wall and small electrical charges travel through the wire to the heart. &#8211; <a target="_blank" href="http://americanheart.org">americanheart.org</a></font></p></blockquote>
<p>There is nothing to panic about, at least not yet as the technique of having unauthorised access remains with the people (researchers and students) who would not use it to harm anyone. </p>
