Anonymous Africa, the group that took responsibility for the recent attack on the SABC’s websites, has set its sights on Gupta-owned companies.

The activists attacked the websites of ANN7, Sahara Computers, and The New Age.

Shortly after starting the attack, the group reported that the websites of ANN7 and The New Age were down. Sahara computers was down soon after

However, the group revealed that “Datapro” (Vox Telecom) were able to mitigate its attack on ANN7.

“Team at Datapro are good. Sahara is still tango down, working on figuring how to get around the bright minds at Datapro for ANN7,” said Anonymous Africa.

At the time of publication, ANN7, Sahara, and The New Age were accessible from certain connections.
