Cyber experts claim that attacks from India are focused on targeting government websites. Kislay Chaudhary, cyber security analyst and CEO of Indian Cyber Army, told The Daily Mail:
“Several Pakistani websites were hacked in the last couple of days, which is done to send across a message that Indian hackers won’t sit quiet. Underground community is also planning to launch a major attack specially targeting government operated websites. Our investigations reveal several sites have already been defaced.”
Indian Black Hats is also identifying and blocking profiles on social media and websites being operated by banned terror outfits like Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and Indian Mujahideen (IM).

Six terrorists, divided into two teams, entered the Pathankot air force base and launched a deadly attack over the first weekend of 2016 to destroy India’s fighter jets, attack helicopters, a fueling station and a building where ammunition was stored. Seven military personnel (5 Defence Security Corps personnel, 1 IAF Garud commando, and 1 National Security Guard) were martyred in the assault.
In November 2015, Kerala Cyber Warriors along with Indian Black Hats attacked as many as 130 government and non-government Pakistani websites as a tribute to the martyrs of Mumbai terror attacks, which began on 26 November and lasted until 29 November, 2008 killing more than 150 people.
