The targeted sub-domain reportedly belongs to IPV6 training forum.

Hacker left a deface page along with a message on hacked domain, bashing the site admin for poor security.

The reason for targeting TRA’s website was not mentioned anywhere, but abusive words against USA and Israel were left in bold letters. This leads to the conclusion that it was just a random hack, but considering the importance of the institution; it is impossible to ignore it.
