LulzSec hack timeline: Doing it for the lulz
Fresh from their latest hack, Computerworld Australia brings you a timeline of LulzSec's major scalps
June 8: U.S. cybersecurity company, Black & Berg Cybersecurity Consulting, posed a challenge on its website for hackers to change an image on its homepage. The first person to succeed would be rewarded $US10,000 and a position with the company's senior cybersecurity advisor, Joseph Black.
LulzSec answered to the hacking competition, changing Black & Berg's homepage image to their Twitter logo, and announced on its social networking site, "Done, that was easy. Keep your money we do it for the lulz".
Black responded to the hack on Twitter by posting, "Wait, we do have a comment. Please unf**k our website. Thank you. ~ Joe".
