New Delhi: The website of the Indian Institute of Management-Bangalore (IIM-B) has been hijacked. It has been hijacked by hackers peddling erectile dysfunction products like Viagra. The website has been out of service for at least ten days.
As per sources, the cached versions of its home page during the period show the IIM masthead is superceded by ads for purchasing Viagra online without recommendations. All links such as those about the B-school's faculty, programmes, et al have also been renamed with headers about Viagra and Cialis.
But IIM-B's microsites like the Centre for Corporate Governance & Citizenship are unaffected. According to a statement issued by an official they hope to fix the problem within 2-3 days and have lodged a complaint against the vendor.
