Internet Info War

Cyber Attack Strikes FreedomWorks

I wasn't sure where to put this post. The Truthblog or the Techblog. It's certainly appropriate for either or both.

Unfortunately we still tend to discount the risks we're subject to on the Internet. I think it's clear that the Freedomworks guys didn't realize just how big a target they were. Of course the first thought I had was that the load created by the mention on Beck's program may have been responsible for the crash, but apparently they have forensic evidence that leads them to conclude that it was an attack.

Job #1 is to make sure your servers can handle the actual load. Job #2 make sure you have a complete duplicate backup that can go online instantly should something go wrong. They say they lost $80,000 dollars in donations as the result of the outage - it would have cost much less to have a system waiting to be deployed when the first system crashed. Job#3 have appropriate logging and tracking technologies implemented so that the culprits can be prosecuted. I sure hope they get the bums!

This is truly a cultural and political civil war and this was just one of the attacks. I'm ready for battle!

Thank Goodness the Bad Guys Don't Take My Advice

Zeus botnet bank thieves were careless with own security

I've not seen a virus, trojan or other nefarious software that couldn't be made infinitely worse with a trivial change. But the bad guys don't seem to get it, thankfully.

This seems to be the ultimate case of that denseness. Leaving evidence of your crime that can be traced back to you is a real no-no for criminals looking for a lengthy career.
