The American Express company has already fixed the defaced page, but the mirror is still online. The CTO American Express website is used by American Express to introduce and connect CTO’s. The AnonGhost hack shows that it is very easy for hackers to manipulate unsecure webapplications. These manipulations could allow the hackers to infect their targets with remote access trojans. These trojans are used by hackers to gain full control of the infected device. Once the device is under the control of the hacker, the hacker will be able to steal personal and financial information.
