Two Singaporean men have been arrested for allegedly defacing President Tony Tan’s website during a recent rash of cyber attacks.The website was hacked about an hour after Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong’s website displayed mocking messages from hackers’ group Anonymous. Police said the two attacks are unrelated to each other. Police did not reveal the identity of the two suspects aged 17 and 42, but Singaporean businessman Doolson Moo had earlier told the Straits Times newspaper that he did it to “test for vulnerabilities.” He said his accomplice was a 17-year-old student he knew through Facebook. The arrests on Thursday come after another Singaporean was charged in court for hacking a municipal council’s website. Singapore strictly regulates the traditional media, but insists the new licensing rules do not impinge on Internet freedom.
