Mad HackerZ Team, the Lebanese hackers that in the past week breached and defaced a large number of websites as part of what they call the electronic revolution, managed to leak data from the server on which the official site of Lebanon’s Ministry of Economy and Trade is hosted. The hackers not only leaked tons of data from the site, but they also defaced it to post their protest messages.

“And Now Sorry For Owner Website But We Have To Send Our Messege. I Repeat: Our revolution is peaceful. Our goal: Deliver a message to the Lebanese people and Governors,” the hackers wrote.

The data dump includes usernames, email addresses, passwords (not in clear text), names and other private information belonging to the site’s customers.

Besides the site of the Ministry of Economy and Trade, the Mad HackerZ also breached the Lebanese White Pages, publishing usernames and password hashes, including the ones of the site’s administrators.
