The hacking group known as the Yemen Cyber Army has hacked into Saudi Arabia's computer systems.
The hacking crew breached the website, servers and databases belonging to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Interior and the Ministry of Defense of Saudi Arabia. The Yemen Cyber Army has published thousands of top secret documents and much other information.
The data includes emails, personal and classified information of government personnel and diplomats involved in various secret missions around the world, as well as strategic planning documents. The group claims that it has “gained access to the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) network, but more worryingly, it will gain control of more than 3,000 computers and servers, as well as thousands of users.”
