Based on the claims of the “Anonymous” group, tomorrow (Tue) Israeli and Jewish online sites are expected to be under a heavy online attack lead by pro-Palestinian hackers.
The frequent cyber threat on Israeli targets is expected to intensify tomorrow, according to the announcement by pro-Palestinian groups and hackers that an integrated and timed attack will take place tomorrow on the virtual scene.
For the past few days, the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) and National Cyber Bureau have been preparing for the attack, which is expected to also target smartphones and tablets, in addition to Israeli government and military offices. Initial signs of the online attack were recorded several days ago, as the official website of the “Meretz” party was vandalized.
“The attacks focus on organizations identified with the target country, whether because they provide services to it or whether they are bodies representing the government,” explained “2BSecure” CEO, Alon Mantsur. “The declared goal is to try and damage Israeli websites by harming secrecy, availability or the completeness of information, and thus disrupting the lifestyle of residents of the State of Israel and spreading panic.”
