Pakistan steps up cyber attacks against India 
Press Trust of India
Bangalore, August 04 

After cross-border terrorism, Pakistan has opened up a new front
against= India -- cyber attacks. 

Hackers from Pakistan and terrorist organisations are increasing their=
attacks on Indian websites to provide a new dimension to the ongoing=
Indo-Pak conflict over Jammu and Kashmir, a defence official said. 

Group Captain Ajit Tyagi from the Directorate of Information
Technology,= Air Force Headquarters, said terrorist organisations were
resorting to the= Internet and information systems to extend their
warfare into a completely= new arena to give a new, low-cost dimension,
with maximum effect and= reach. 

In his presentation on "information security/warfare and cyber
terrorism"= here at the two-day national seminar on Information and
Network Security,= he revealed that hacker groups from Pakistan like
Pakistan Hacker Club and= MoS had intensified their attacks on Indian
websites, especially over the= last three years. 

Citing an example, Tyagi said these terrorist organisations hacked
websites= and networks and destroyed electronic systems.  The Indian
Army website on= Jammu and Kashmir was hacked two years back by
Pakistani hackers.  They had= floated false information about human
rights violations by the Indian= defence forces on the Army's websites.
