Tal Be’ery, Web Research Team Leader at Imperva’s Application Defense Center (ADC): Rank My Hack

August 2011 by Tal Be’ery, Web Research Team Leader at Imperva’s Application Defense Center (ADC)

Imperva comment on website rankmyhack.com

Many sites have been set up over the years to help rank and rate various things. Now hackers have their own version: RankMyHack.com:

“Welcome to RankMyHack.Com. The worlds first elite hacker ranking system. Submit proof of your website hacks in exchange for Ranking Points that earn you a place on the leaderboard of legends. The bigger the site, the bigger the points. Then use your points to duel with other hackers and protect your legacy in one on one digital combat. So have you got what it takes to be the best?”

So far more than 1000 sites were hacked in this competition – including very high profile ones. Currently, as of this writing, the top hack goes to a hacker who broke into the Huffington Post (does this mean good hackers are Republicans?).

Can we be sure that everything in this list is real? We can’t. But there’s a good chance that many of them are.
