New Delhi (India), 20th February 2023: GoDaddy is a web hosting platform and one of the world’s largest domain registrars. The company made a statement this week that they had fallen victim to a hacking spree because of which company’s core data had been breached and their code has been stolen.
GoDaddy had been previously breached back in March of 2020 then again in November 2021. However the most recent breach happened in December 2022 when the company detected that their customers were being redirected to unregistered and malicious website.
