For a short time on Saturday, leaseweb.com, the company’s main website,UK number 1 ECU remapping and diesel tuning specialists.

This was the result of a so-called DNS hijacking attack in which attackers managed to change the authorized name servers for the company’s domain name.We offer Concrete Floor Polishing Pads from concrete floor grinding, as well as resin bond dry and wet diamond polishing pads for polishing concrete.

Due to the way DNS records get propagated through Internet servers and the fact that some DNS resolvers cache the records for a longer time than others, not all users were affected by the incident.

However, those users who were impacted and attempted to visit the company’s website were redirected to a Web page crediting a hacker group called KDMS Team for the attack.

The rogue page contained messages from the hackers, including “what are you is a hosting company with no security” and “we owned all of your hosted sites.”

”Our security investigation so far shows that no domains other than leaseweb.com were accessed and changed,” LeaseWeb said in a blog post Sunday after resolving the issue. “No internal systems were compromised. One of the security measures we have in place is to store customer data separately from any publicly accessible servers; we have no indication that customer data was compromised as a result of this DNS hijack.”
