One of the subdomains for the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS)
fell victim to an attack over the weekend, with hackers, going by the
names Apollo and 0day, defacing the sub-site and dumping user

They also claimed to have deleted everything on the server as a lesson

UTS confirmed the breach, stating that the server was used to publish
