“With Gaza conflict, cyberattacks come too”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The conflict raging in Gaza between Israel and Palestine has spilled over to the Internet.
Since Saturday, thousands of Web pages have been defaced by hacking groups operating out of Morocco, Lebanon, Turkey, Iran, said Gary Warner, director of research in computer forensics with the University of Alabama at Birmingham.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Since then, Warner estimates that about 10,000 Web pages have been hacked. Many of these intrusions have been documented on sites such as Arabic Mirror, which keeps track of hacked Web sites. Often these are mass defacements where many pages hosted on the same server are hit.
The defacements are being carried out by loose-knit hacking groups that meet in several online forums to coordinate their attacks.”

In addition, the CLA has facilitated the transfer of 10 ambulances and 2,000 blood units to Gaza, and has approved a Palestinian request to allow three Gazans wounded in the fighting into Israel for medical treatment, Levi said.”
