A group called Pinoy LulzSec hacked multiple government websites, both local and international, for its April Fools' Day prank. Not only did Pinoy LulzSec hack government websites, but it also included a couple of universities and private companies. The group did not entirely deface the sites that they hacked; instead, they uploaded a dedicated page to the servers of the websites, containing a "congratulations" message for the admins and owners. Restaurant search and discovery service Zomato announced that it was recently hacked, with 17 million user records stolen from their database. The company has also announced that they are introducing a bug bounty program on Hackerone very soon. AndroidAuthority reports that it was only discovered because a Russian hacker was caught bragging of what he has done in an online forum. In a world of cyber threats and data hacks, we simply cannot be too careful with what information we give online. Following the recent hack done to COMELEC's website, another online portal was defaced by hacking groups and this time around, ABS-CBN's national radio arm, DZMM, got hit.
