OurMine Takes Over Multiple CNN Accounts

Hacker group OurMine temporarily gained control of multiple CNN accounts on Facebook. It gained access to CNN's primary page, CNN International, and CNN Politics. The group proceeded to make its presence known by posting information about itself and linking to its site.

OurMine has often hacked large Twitter accounts, but it doesn't appear the group took over any CNN presences on Twitter or Instagram.

Its messages were removed within about 30 minutes.

Other major companies affected by OurMine in the recent past include World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and Sony Music.
