The Dec 17, 2009 event was a tempest in a teapot, but to save you time and trouble, here are 3 links that tell you everything you need to know about what happened, what didn’t happen, and what the take-away should be.
- If you want to know what happened, and how it happened, click here.
- If you want to know what probably did not happen, in spite of the poster’s histrionics, click here.
- If you want to know what the most important take-away from this incident is, click here.
Having said all that, I am worried about what might happen on December 27, 2009, which marks the anniversary of Operation Cast Lead; Israel’s attack against Hamas strongholds in Gaza which resulted in over 1,000 casualties and a lengthy cyber war between State and Non-state hackers. December 27th (on or about) is also a Muslim holy day – the Day of Ashura, which commemorates the martydom of Imam Husayn.
For this reason, agencies and corporations who are high value targets for cyber attacks may want to review their network and physical security plans.
