ICANN Domain Names Stolen

Published July 7th, 2008


On June 26 the domain names icann.com and iana.com were temporarily taken over. The attack allowed for the perpetrators to direct those websites to whatever location they wanted. ICANN claims that the incident only lasted for 20 minutes before being fixed. However, it may take up to two days for all internet directories to be updated and have the sites back to normal.
