The official website of antivirus service provider Avast along with 4 of its sub-domains, designated for Germany have been hacked and defaced by Maxney of Turkish Ajan group. As a result of hack, around 20,000 accounts and payment information of Avast’s online users have been leaked online.
The hacker, who contacted me on Twitter, explained that reason for hacking was the ongoing genocide of Palestinian and East Turkistnian people.

Among the targets, official website of Avast avadas.de , official forum of Avast forum.avadas.de, Avast’s service center service.avadas.de, Avast’s freeware software ypo3.avadas.de and Avast email server.
