Everyone,

Is anyone analyzing the frequency, type of attack, magnitude, motive, and
the type of target behind so called information warfare attacks. I am still
not willing to call these pranks as information warfare, had it been
confirmed that these are well coordinated and are moving towards a definite
objective then they would be rightly called so. But picking up stragglers
and sites apparently of no value seems hardly worth the news on this group.

Ozair

Overseas Hackers Strike Again: Israel Land Administration Shuts Down Most of
its Web Site
Elazar Levin
04.12.2000 15:43  Published by Israel's Business Arena

The Israel Land Administration (ILA) was forced to close most of its
Internet site last Fridey, due to damage caused by hostile overseas hackers.
>From now on and until further notice, there is therefore no possibility of
receiving the results of the ILA’s new or previous tenders dated after
January 1998.

In contrast to the damage to tenders, other parts of the site providing
general information are still operating.

The damage caused by the hackers began in the middle of last week. The ILA
attempted to overcome the malfunction, but decided by the end of the week
that there was no alternative to closing most of the site.

Among other effects, closing the site means that developers and contractors
wishing to participate in ILA tenders are unable to obtain the tender
details. The ILA recommends that these parties follow parallel announcements
in the daily press.

ILA acting director-general Miron Chumash told “Globes” that he hopes that
the site will renew its functioning within a few days. Meanwhile, the ILA is
preparing alternate means of providing the information. The damage by
hostile hackers follows similar operations in recent weeks, which among
other things damaged the Ministry of Foreign Affairs web site.
