Only users who accessed the site from their mobile devices were redirected

The official website of the Miami Dolphin cheerleaders (Dolphinscheerleaders.com) was hacked on Monday. Users who visited the site from their mobile devices were redirected to an adult website.

It took the website’s administrators until early Tuesday to address the issue. At the time of writing, the mobile version of the Dolphin cheerleaders site is no longer redirecting visitors.

Dolphins representatives have told the Palm Beach Post that they didn’t know anything about the hack until Tuesday, when they rushed to fix the problem. An investigation has been launched to find out how the hackers managed to gain unauthorized access to the website.

Usually, such websites are not very secure, especially since they don’t store any sensitive information. That’s why they’re easy targets for hackers.
