The hacktivist group Anonymous claimed this week that it took down a dozen Egyptian government websites using distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks in retaliation for the government’s treatment of protestors. Egyptian protestors have been demonstrating in Cairo, demanding that the military government that took over after the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak move faster on democratic reforms. The Egyptian military police began a crack down on the protectors last weekend. In response, Anonymous said it launched DDoS attacks against government websites, including the website of the president’s office and the bureau for tourism. The hacktivist group took responsibility for the attack on at least one Brazilian operations page, saying the attacks are in response to the treatment of protesters in Egypt.
