For exam malpractice.

Tomorrow the same set of graduates who benefitted from such criminality would also complain about being graduates yet unemployed.

You are simply unemployable.

In ability and honesty you have failed.

A hacker who was allegedly paid 600K, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Abeokuta, Ogun State, for allegedly erecting a radio mast with the aim of hacking the virtual Private network of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board.

He was arrested alongside the proprietor of Bright Technologies, an IT company, whose name was not given. The hacker’s wife and
other accomplices were also arrested by the NSCDC team from Abuja. Two suspects were said to be on the run, the Punch reports.
One of the suspects, identified only as Tosin, allegedly confessed that the deal they were contracted for was to extend the JAMB network, from an
accredited Computer Based Test centre in Abeokuta to some cyber cafe operators in the area where candidates can be registered illegally for the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.


The corps claimed that during the interrogation, the proprietor also confessed that he created over 400 User Names and passwords.

“We are using unlicensed spectrum to transmit to our customers using 2.4 gigabyte and 5.8 gigabyte radio. On March 28, they came from Kindle e-Learning Service that they wanted Internet services and after three days, they came again, (Tosin, Segun and Jide) that they wanted us to configure VPN for them.

“They told me they needed our services only during the JAMB registration and on April 1, we went to their office. They gave me the IP (Internet Protocol) address and I did pinging from my own Router. I have collected about N600,000 so far from Kindle e-Learning,” he allegedly confessed.

The JAMB Head of Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, said the intention of the group was to completely demobilise the Board process.

“With what we saw, we are of the strong opinion that the DSS should also come in to consolidate on the investigation done by NSCDC.

“This is because if this group has the IP address of any bank; they could take the whole money in the banks" he said.

To be sincere this can not be classified as hacking after pinging the host site and getting the ip address and subnet the next was to share the network using vpn why not jam the network or perform some dos ddos then I can commend you.

Instead of arresting them, JAMB should find out how they did it and block that loophole. I want to believe whoever built the JAMB registration site is culpable. They might have left room for back door access or even deliberately allowing SQL Injection to be executed.

When organizations give out software development contracts to foreign companies, we will be blaming them but here's a classic reason and example why they do so SMH

These guys have done something really illegal with nice skills. If I own a company that deals with cyberwarfare, I'll employ them.

Our inteligence agencies need people like this.

Employ them to your doom and destruction. No reputable organization employs a criminal. Mind is everything. A sick mind is destructive. Developed nations never employ criminals no matter their skills. That is why a country like the UK has an agency named Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) that keeps everyone's criminal records. You either go for standard or enhanced disclosure depending on how sensitive the position being sought is. No criminal works in their security agencies, schools, hospital and others even if their convictions have been spent...

I didn't say employ them as a criminal. In a reputable organization or in an advanced countries there are ways they could have used their talents and skills without venturing into a criminal activities.

I only applauded their skills and not their act.

DSS had to force people to give out passwords that could have been cracked by a professional. There are better ways where talents can be groomed to be used for reasonable reasons to avoid things like this.

Interesting. But always remember: Crime pays no one. Why couldn't he put his IT skills to lawful, better and productive use?





Meanwhile, FTC
did u even understand the story? I doubt it.

Technically, what the man did was not really a crime. He did not hack any network. He only wanted to extend coverage from a jamb accredited centre to other points that are not accredited, but with the intention that all their registration will still go thru the router installed at the jamb accredited centre. It is just like creating branch offices from a main office. It is not a crime, just that it is against jamb regulations. Anyway, jamb has been very stupid this year so far.
