After a recent hiatus, hacker group Anonsec says it has successfully hacked an unidentified drone, and still has the drone under its control as of today.
“We have been still going through drone data and video logs, and soon
we will release a teaser of video log on the Internet,” said the group in a statement.
While Anonsec is keeping its card close to the vest for now, they have said they targeted one particular drone deliberately.
“One reason we decided to target these drones is some of them are collecting chemical samples from upper atmosphere, and (we) wanted to get hands on that data to possibly prove the existence of chemicals,” says Anonsec.
Among the data the group claims to have collected are flight paths, longitude and latitude, altitude, air pressure and video logs.

Nasa hack: AnonSec attempts to crash $222m drone, releases secret flight videos and employee data - sUAS News
Hackers from the AnonSec group who spent several months hacking Nasa have released a huge data dump and revealed they tried to bring down a $222m Global Hawk Drone into the Pacific Ocean. The hack included employee personal details, flight logs and video footage collected from unmanned and manned aircraft.
The 250GB data dump contained the names, email addresses and phone numbers of 2,414 Nasa employees, 2,143 flight logs and 631 videos taken from Nasa aircraft and radar feeds, as well as a self-published paper (known as a “zine”) from the group explaining the extensive technical vulnerabilities that the hackers were able to breach.
In the zine, AnonSec explains that it purchased an “initial foothold” from a hacker with knowledge of Nasa’s servers in 2013 and then began experimenting to see how many computers they could break into and hijack. AnonSec found that the administrator credentials for securely controlling Nasa computers and servers remotely were left at default, so it took the hackers no time at all to get into the network and then grab more login data using a hidden packet sniffer.
