Crackers declared cyberwar on USA
Brazilian newspapers were informed that a new hacking
group composed of worldwide individuals (from Brazil, China, Hong Kong
and Russia) has declared cyberwar on the United States of America.
Its name is Hackers Against America (HAA) and their web site is hosted
on a Russian server. According to what is written on the main page,
they plan to integrate new members and launch attacks against
computers based in the US (cracking some of them but also use worms,
viruses) in order to steal private documents. Some samples of
documents and codes are available on the web site, although they don't
seem to be secret at all and possible to find by using search engines.
Even if this threat appears to be tiny now, it is probably not a hoax
and it could grow in the future, just keep an eye on it.
