Victim of a Facebook hack ?


Yesterday, you may have noticed that Facebook had some worries about its web version. Indeed, the European users were unable to connect to the social network. Facebook cited a single failure, but a hacker Own3r, is claiming the movement Anonymous claimed him to a cyber attack.

The hacker says he launched an attack Cross-Resquest Forgery (CRSF), to bring the social network to its knees. A large-scale attack thus leading to the failure of the site. While Facebook has acknowledged this failure, the site of Mr. Zuckerberg denies a computer attack.

Indeed, the Palo Alto firm indicates that the crash of his site is due to optimization test, during which he would have changed his DNS. Facebook is officially broke, but the hypothesis of cyber attack is not ruled out.
