We recently learned that Google Malaysia main page was defaced via DNS hijacking. Malaysian Registrar MYNIC has published a statement saying the DNS hijack is done through one of their Reseller's account.

"We can assure there is no customer’s content, password information and other personal information affected by the redirect" Hasnul Fadhly Hasan, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of MYNIC said in their official blog post.

MYNIC says it is "undertaking all necessary measures to monitor the situation and prevent further related issues".

Hasnul said that various security measures have taken place on MYNIC’s infrastructure since the first incident on 1st July 2013. The investigation shows their system is not compromised after the incident.

"However, this time around, the group manipulated reseller's account management. MYNIC’s next course of action is to immediately improve resellers’ security on account management" Hasnul added.
