Users aren't the only ones that have to stay vigilant when it comes to security. On the other side of the fence, keeping a website secure is a challenge for even the best webmasters.
We recently came across lots of websites under the ".my" domain that were compromised and unintentionally hosting malicious or unsafe links.
A very small sample of these sites:
Quite a few of the sites were hosting crack files:
Others had less savory things to offer:
Some sites had a page that looked like a search engine:
Clicking on any of the links didn't do anything, though.
The compromised sites were on multiple servers and are a disparate collection of commercial, personal and educational institution websites.
As usual, relevant malicious links were rated and F-Secure users are protected by our Browsing Protection.
