High Profile Foreign Sites

What do Lucent, Silicon Graphics, Epson, Borland, NEC, Visa, Nintendo
and Nextel
have in common? They were all victims of web page defacement this month,
mostly by a group calling themselves 'prime suspectz'. The catch? In each
case, it wasn't the United States based web server. 'prime suspectz' and
other defacers have recently taken on a pattern of going after their
slightly lesser known foreign pages. In cases like Silicon Graphics, their own
machine running Irix was compromised, leading to more questions about Irix
security. Had each of these been the primary/US based server, we no doubt would
have seen several news articles about the events.
