The attacker used a brute force attack, where repeated attempts to guess passwords or other credentials were made until the correct combination was found. This method can exploit weak security measures or passwords to gain unauthorized access to systems.
The reason for the attack was simply “Heh…just for fun!” indicating the hacker’s intent to demonstrate skills or create disruption for personal amusement rather than any deeper motivation.
