Bahrain blames hack attack on Iran

MANAMA, Bahrain, May 1 (UPI) — Officials in Bahrain say Iranian
hackers festooned the Housing Ministry Web site with anti-government
slogans.

Similar attacks have been launched against the Philippines Embassy in
Bahrain and several publications, Gulf Daily News reported, saying it
had been one of the victims. Housing officials said the security breach
of its Web site had not resulted in the theft of any personal
information of housing applicants.

Hackers, believed to have ties to Iran, placed an image of a hand
covered in blood, a corpse and a soldier moving away with a U.S. flag in
back of it. The image was surrounded by anti-government messages.

Bahrain hosts the U.S. Fifth Fleet.

A Housing Ministry official said the agency plans to move its servers from a U.S. Web host to Bahrain.
