AnonGhost is the same group who hacked the official website of Wayne county Sheriff and leaked login credentials of its employees last month.  

AnonGhost was also behind hacking ESET anti-virus software developers for Israel and the Hillside Illinois Police Department website against NATO strikes in 2013. In 2015, AnonGhost hacked Israeli credit cards and donated about $18,000 to pro-Palestinian charity for OpIsrael.

At the time of publishing this article, all targeted websites were restored and available online.
