Citi Bank & Bank of America Faced Sent Offline After Massive DDoS Attack (Operation Ababil)

Late in last year we have reported that major banking and finical sector of America faced massive cyber attack. The attack came just after 'anti Islamic' video was posted online. During the time of attack the hacker group named 'Izz ad-Din al Qassam Cyber Fighters' said "these series of attacks will continue until the Erasing of that nasty movie from the Internet". But now its seems that, the earlier deceleration of the hacker collective group was fake, as they again engaged denial of service attack against large banking sector, where Citi Bank and Bank of America fallen victim. Several website of those above banks were reported offline for a certain period of time. "Just moments ago Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Cyber Fighters attacked CitiBank and made all the parts out of reach. This was the 2nd attack this day. Banks could not stop al-Qassam Cyber fighters this week" - said the hacker group in their blog. In thier blog Hilf-ol-Fozoul reports that on Thursday several domains of Citi Bank such as citicards.com, citibank.com and citi.com were inaccessible during the pick hours. "In the 3rd week from Operation Ababil, Bank of America faced technical difficulties due to heavy traffic made by al - Qassam Cyber Fighters and users can no more reach the site." said the hackers.

The Citi Bank’s representatives acknowledged the cyber attack while saying “Currently we are aware & are working on technical issues with Citi websites. We will let you know when service is fully restored. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please call the number on the back of your card if you need immediate assistance,” on Twitter. But the representatives of Bank of America have not issued any statements on the matter.
