UK Government in Wales account tweets out porn
The official Twitter account of the UK Government in Wales has been used to post pornography. The spokesman declined to disclose how the account was compromised. The account is used to represent "The face of the UK government in Wales" and is followed by more than 14,500 others. "After all of the profile account hijacking, it's surprising that a government account can still be taken over," commented Prof Alan Woodward, a cyber-security expert from the University of Surrey. The development comes days after it emerged that a suspect has been arrested in the US in connection with the hack of Twitter chief Jack Dorsey's own account in August.
