Australia-based computer hacker Abdilo has stepped up his brazen computer hacking, this time streaming his exploits via live online video.

On Monday, the ABC revealed Abdilo was responsible for what could be the largest breach of private details in Australian history.

Abdilo said he stole more than 770,000 records when he broke into the computer systems of travel insurance company Aussie Travel Cover.

The information was customer and insurance policy information and included partially redacted credit card numbers, names, phone numbers and email addresses.

Abdilo published some of it online and admitted to the ABC via internet chat that while he knew it was reckless, he was not worried about the police.

And it seems like media attention of his illegal online exploits has not worried him either.

On Tuesday Abdilo was back and once again hacking computer systems, this time focussing his attention on American education websites.

He was showing off his hacking skills to anyone who wanted to watch and streamed his efforts online via the website join.me.

Computer system after system fell to his simple SQL injection attacks.

Databases spat out people's private information and anyone watching the video stream could see it.

He then posted the database structure of a US university based in Illinois. One of the databases was called email_list and appeared to contain message data and email attachments.

One person had their details tweeted but it was not even remarked upon by Abdilo's Twitter followers who are familiar with the daily occurrence.

Once Abdilo was done with his hacking, he signed off: "ended stream gotta go do shit now cya."

Intelligence reports from IntelCrawler, a private IT company in the United States, said Abdilo is a teenager living in Queensland.

Aussie Travel Cover cleans up computer system after hack

On Monday, the Australian Federal Police (AFP) revealed it was aware of the Aussie Travel Cover matter and by extension the hacker.

But despite that the AFP would not confirm if it was investigating him.

Aussie Travel Cover is still dealing with the fallout after being hacked by Abdilo on December 18.

The company sent an email to agents on Tuesday morning, telling them that the privacy breach was being investigated.

"Our company has been in contact with the appropriate authorities including CERT Australia, AFP and the Privacy Commissioner in regard to this matter," the company wrote.

But while thanking agents for their support, the company still has not informed customers or policy holders that their details may have been compromised.

Under Australian law, Aussie Travel Cover has no legal obligation to let customers know about the privacy breach.
