The funding of militant groups in Pakistan is complicated, with potentially multiple governments involved, including the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, the everyday reality of hacking and attacks on government websites continues.
There has been a series of cyber-attacks against Indian embassies with malware calling back to IP addresses located in Pakistan. In retaliation, the Indian oil and natural gas company's website was defaced by a group calling themselves the Pakistan Cyber Army.
Hackers from Pakistan have repeatedly targeted Indian websites including the National Informatics Centre (NIC), which manages the entire domain registry for .in websites. These cyberattacks highlight the ongoing tensions between the two countries and the potential impact of political conflict on the internet.
