Cyber attacks are illegal, aren't they? Hopefully they find and prosecute these bastards and lock them up for a very long time, as they should with all hackers.
If a site cant stand up to simple DDOS attacks its still a problem.
No website can stand up to DoS attacks. If a website's normal traffic is large and the size of the attack is large enough the website goes down. It's as simple as that... or am I missing something?
DDoS attacks, from my knowledge, aren't that uncommon and aren't that tricky to do. 4Chan used to experience them on a weekly basis. They usually take less than a day to fix, but good luck doing that for a government website that thousands of people are trying to access each day.
