Harare Institute of Technology allegedly hit with cyber attack

A screenshot with the Harare Institute of Technology website being shown as hacked 

started circulating. We tried to open the website to see the same thing as was in the 

picture but it failed to load. Chances are that the website has been taken down by HIT if 

they’ve found out what has happened hence it’s no longer opening.

Since the website couldn’t open, we cannot say that they have been hacked as a fact 

because the website being down could be caused by something else and just be a 

coincidence. However, we also recently received the following email from the attacker.
