Indonesian hacker Dbuzz has breached and defaced the Our Planet subdomain on the United States Department of State website (infocentral.state.gov).

The attack took place a couple of days ago, HackRead informs. At the time of writing, the website has been restored, but a few hours ago, it was reportedly taken offline. A mirror of the defacement can be found on Dbuzz’s zone-h.org account.

“Hacked by Dbuzz. Secure Your Box,” the hacker wrote on the defaced page.

On around the same day when he hacked the US Department of State website, Dbuzz also breached and defaced the official blog domain of USEmbassy.gov, the website of US embassies, consulates and diplomatic missions.

Earlier this week, the hacker defaced websites of the Indonesian government and ones of a Malaysian educational institution.
