It was not long time ago when we heard that Orkut Brazil and TechCrunch was hacked, and today India’s largest software vendor and service provider,TCS, was hacked by a French Hacker. These hacks have put up a question mark to the security-services provided by the company.
TCS gives its consultancy services to most of the major banks of India and aboard like, SBI (State Bank of India) etc, and it under threat was not foreseen. As it appeared the threat was due to DNS Loophole which even Twitter fell victim too.
In spite of the nature of attack on TCS we advise the readers to pay attention on the Internet Security and updates as they could be next as a target for using out-dated soft wares with vulnerabilities (another aspect of hacking is to find loopholes and vulnerabilities to exploit it).

@Rahul the news is authentic. Please check out the link below the post. The place from where the image has been taken is very authentic and features itself on Google News.
Plus there is no doubt that this outage took place, as others also complained about the same.
