Hello fellow Bubblers. I hope your Christmas and new years were enjoyed.
Just writing to warn all of you out there with a web site for your creative endeavors to beware. My website mikoto.com.au got hacked into and I have spent the last 3 days rebuilding it from scratch.
The cyber nerds got into my site with apparent ease using a brute force attack and then diverted all the traffic to some other destination.
I have learn’t that you need to make your passwords over 20 letters, numbers and symbols or it can easily get picked by the ‘bots’.
It was a timely hack though that I used to revamp my website with some fun new images and functionality. To read the long version of this story goto mikoto.com.au
