Anonymous Engaged Massive Cyber-Attack To Bring-down Vatican Website
Hacker collective group
Anonymous take-down the official site of
Vatican. In the last Wednesday evening Vatican faced massive denial of service of attack and
www.vatican.va, was inaccessible for much of Wednesday afternoon and evening. According to Anonymous the motive of this cyber attack is to protest everything from Catholic doctrine to the sexual abuse of children. The hacker group said -
"This attack is not against the Christian religion or the faithful around the world but against the corrupt Roman Apostolic Church," said the statement, posted on the Italian-language version of the Anonymous website.
"Anonymous decided today to besiege your site in response to the doctrine, to the liturgies, to the absurd and anachronistic concepts that your for-profit organization spreads around the world," the hackers said in a statement. Last year also Anonymous tried to engage cyber-attack into the Vatican but failed. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, confirmed the attack but declined to comment on its possible source. He said he didn't know how long it would take the Vatican's technicians to bring the site back up.
Similarly last year Anonymous has declared
Operation Brotherhood and Threatens to "Destroy The Muslim Brotherhood". According to the official you tube video release Anon declared that to hack Muslim Brotherhood websites, starting with the Arabic Ikhwanonline.com. But
#OpBrotherhood caused serious damage for Anonymous while a hacker named a Pakistani Hacker called
Tha Disastar has
Hacked and defaced the official website of AnonyOPS. The DDoS specilist has also faced massive denial of service attack on the anonyops.com. In the message hacker said that
"Anonymous should stay in limits,and must not go out of there limits to others peoples religion". That time also Anonymous clarified that the attack was not to hit the Muslim religion but to those grand-masters who vows to follow all orders of the Murshid, without hesitation such as terrorism and so on. But the Muslims took that in a conservative way and as a result Anon faced massive criticism as well ass cyber attack. Who knows may be this attack against Vatican may also create the same scenario for the Hacktivist.
