EBS (India) went through several mergers/acquisitions, so it goes here

FYI, EBS billing software was exploited (used or abused by cybercriminals) before the Ogone or Ingenico mergers.

•(Area52Hosting also exploited prior) Between November 2011 and October 2013 Ingenico's Indian subsidiary EBS (E-Billing Solutions) software was used/abused by cybercriminals to prevent the payment for the IT service of renewal of the domain name, or nodename, Hydro Dot Net. The web address Hydro Dot Net was then deleted by the IT services company rather than renewed, and immediately re-registered by BigRock (India) to be sold at auction to the highest bidder on the SnapNames website, in what some consider to be Domain hijacking. Due to the fact that both PDR and BigRock are registrars and are subsidiaries of Directi, the standard "dispute" procedures for contested domains were circumvented . The registrant had successfully completed the payment for renewal via EBS (Ingenico), and additionally paid via wire-transfer bank-to-bank, from Japan Post Savings to Axis Bank at Jaipur Raj, but the cybercriminals had already committed themselves to completing the various legal violations (including a clause of the Companies Act of India concerning CEO's and IT), held the wrongfully lost web address at Directi's BigRock, having maintained the registrar of record (PublicDomainRegistry.com, also of Directi) until after the auction. The wrongfully taken web-address was then laundered via GoDaddy in the US. In this case, although both ICANN and IANA had been alerted to the cybercrime, the "Emergency Action Channel" was not effective, and the cybercrime case remains unsolved. In May of 2009, United States law enforcement served a criminal indictment followed by the world's first arrest for domain hijacking as cybercrime, thus giving the blue light for police action. Although most of the procedures of domain registration and transfer are common, the case of Hydro Dot Net was a case in which the domain-hosting backend was exploited at the point of payment for its renewal,

thereby causing its wrongful loss.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.209.29.238 (talk) 16:55, 2 October 2017 (UTC)   — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.209.0.225 (talk) [reply] 

Disambiguation EBS redirect to Ingenico article

Hi. It seems the Ingenico article needs improvements/expansion to the information about EBS. Also, there is a proposed merge of articles for Ogone and Ingenico, but theres nothing about EBS, and by the way EBS is what gave the substance to Ogone justifying the acquisition by Ingenico! Go figure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.209.11.21 (talk) 19:31, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Since your note on this talkpage, it seems India`s EBS has better coverage.
