Zee Media Website Hacked, Allegedly By Bangladeshi Hackers
The official website of Zee Media Corporation Limited, zeemedia.in, has been hacked in what appears to be an attack by Bangladeshi hackers. A message displayed on the hacked site reads, “The Zee Media site was hacked because they made fun of the situation in Bangladesh. If they continue with their dirty behaviour, we will take over and destroy the news channel.” The front page of the website prominently features the phrase “webserver seized by Systemadminbd,” alongside a screenshot of a Zee News story titled “India releases water, leaving Bangladesh flooded.”
Zee Media Corporation Limited is one of India’s largest media networks, operating 14 television news channels, 5 digital news platforms, 7 news apps, and 32 digital properties across various languages and regions. The company’s digital publishing arm has been consolidated under its subsidiary, Indiadotcom Digital Private Limited (IDPL).
Zee Media has yet to issue an official response to the cyberattack. The motive behind the hacking appears to be related to the network’s coverage of Bangladesh.
