DonRoad Team had earlier claimed to have brought down websites affiliated with The Trump Organisation, as well as compromising email servers belonging to Tesla and SpaceX in March. These incidents reportedly resulted in temporary outages experienced on a global scale.
Musk, who currently leads the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under the Trump administration, has faced mounting scrutiny in recent months. Although he continues to enjoy significant public support, recent polls suggest his approval ratings have begun to slip. His flagship enterprises—including Tesla, SpaceX, and the social media platform X—have increasingly become focal points for criticism.
This latest cyber threat follows a string of digital disruptions targeting Musk-led platforms. In March, X suffered three major service outages after a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, which floods a network with traffic until it crashes. That attack was claimed by another group, known as Dark Storm Team.
In a separate incident in February, hackers breached the official website of the Department of Government Efficiency, temporarily altering its homepage to mock Musk and his team. The site displayed a bold message that read: “This is a joke of a .gov site,” along with a taunt that the department had left its database unprotected.
