Hackers obtain counterfeit TLS certificates for Google and other large services

Hackers have obtained counterfeit TLS certificates for Google and other large services due to the compromise of three domain registars: DigiNotar, GlobalSign, and StartCom. These registars issue digital certificates, which are used to verify the identity of websites and protect online communications. The compromise has allowed hackers to obtain unauthorized certificates, potentially allowing them to intercept and decrypt sensitive information.
