The answer

Corrupting websites with viruses, accessing others' devices and data without their permission, and deleting, modifying, or tampering with their data are all forbidden in Islamic law because they constitute an aggression against people's rights and properties, and prohibited espionage. One must refrain from such actions and repent to Allah.
