Russian Hackers Foiled by Joomla

Rob Schley just posted some interesting news at the main Joomla dev blog:

"During what is called the “Deface Realtime Compo” Competition up to 150 Security Specialists, hackers, and crackers bomarded the CMS with attacks for 2 days straight without success. Both Joomla! and PHP-Nuke were evaluated during the competition and both systems received positive evaluations. Along with the positive evaluation, we received a certification from the WebSecure Group, declaring that Joomla! was reliable and recommended for use."

Its good to know that 150 hackers can't break into Joomla dev blog.
