The business news outlet and its sister sites were offline for more than a week after the Fast Co. content management system was breached.

“I’d like to thank you for your patience...To be sidelined for more than a week was a difficult experience for our team,” wrote Fast Co. editor-in-chief, Brendan Vaughan, in yesterday’s blog post.

On September 25, a hacker remade the news outlet’s homepage, replacing each headline with an “obscene and racist message that proudly claimed credit for the intrusion,” as Vaughan explained it. Then, two days later, the hacker twice in quick succession with a very similar message, “N*****S TONGUE MY ANUS. THRAX WAS HERE.” The original homepage defacement displayed the same line preceded by “HACKED BY VINNY TROIA.”Apple News responded by disabling Fast Co.’s channel, and the news outlet opted to shut down all of its sites.
