It is no first instance of Tata Motors’ website getting hacked. In August last year, too, a similar incident was reported. At that time, the website was hacked by ‘Phr0zenMyst’, a Twitter handle. One of the reason behind the hacking of their official website was that the automaker was developing and manufacturing vehicles to be used by the Indian Army.
