Anonymous Venezuela defaces the CANTV website (www.cantv.com.ve)
On June 22, 2014, the hacktivist group Anonymous Venezuela (@AnonymousVene10) claimed responsibility for the attack on CANTV’s main website, www.cantv.com.ve, posting messages mocking the state-owned operator and the government (“HACKED AND ERADICATED!”, “What happened, CANTV Fail???”) and claiming that CANTV “spies” on citizens. The attack coincided with a fiber-optic outage reported by CANTV (beginning June 21) that left several states —the Capital District, Anzoátegui, Falcón, Aragua, Carabobo, and Miranda—and also affected ATMs, point-of-sale terminals, and telephone lines. Media sources have documented the group’s claim of responsibility, although there was no independent technical verification of the defacement by the operator.
Anonymous Venezuela defaces the Bolivarian Military Technical Academy’s etm.mil.ve domain during #Op15O
On October 16, 2013, during Operation #Op15O, Anonymous Venezuela and associated participants reported the defacement of domains belonging to the Bolivarian Military Technical Academy. The strongest evidence pertains to etm.mil.ve, with metadata from the Zone-H mirror saved on October 16, 2013. atmb.mil.ve appears in press reports and reposts, but one of the publicly cited mirrors corresponds to a separate incident from July 2013; therefore, it is listed only as a related asset in the notes.
