Big attack on Facebook planned for 5/11/11

Well Facebook users, I'll give you some advice, go on Facebook tomorrow :93:

Why?

1. Who is the Anonymous team and what do they do?

For those who don't know, and those who don't know either, the group Anonymous is a group divided into other small groups, each with a different approach to things. The best known group is called Anti-Sec, to give you an idea of their power, they have notably hacked a company VERY close to the pentagon, you understand, they don't play in the same league.


2. The rudimentary means used to cause the damage they cause?

Indeed, certain small groups use software well known to police services called L.O.I.C (which I won't give you the source for, but long live google), this software can send 1000 requests per second to a server; the impact would be major on a small server, but on big machines (Ex: Facebook) the impact is minor if few people use it at the same time.


3. Anonymous & Facebook, serious business?

I'd venture to think that indeed the members of this group are going to attack Facebook, recently they dismantled a pedophile network and attacked a Mexican drug cartel, so Facebook....that's small fry :93:


4. Why?

Well if you don't know, Facebook saves EVERYTHING you put, post, delete on their server, once it's there it never leaves.

But that's not the most shocking part, indeed the group even claims that the social network giant resells our information to government organizations...

Your privacy settings? They're only temporary if you believe the group... Words that are very worrying if they turned out to be true... I'll grant you that!

The group simply wants to destroy Facebook, meet up on November 5th on Facebook!

Malicious code discovered on Facebook. :93:

A virus that was supposedly launched by Anonymous to hack the community portal.(that part's for sure)

Who's behind the virus Backdoor-Bifrose-AAJX?

Anonymous announced they wanted to hack Facebook's server by infecting it with a worm named "Fawkes Virus". An operation announced via Youtube.
External content (video or audio) hidden: it sets its own cookies. we just learned that the security tool Bitdefender detected, on November 12, a virus that would work like the worm described by Anonymous.
The file was spread by posing as a video version of Facebook.
The link, written in Arabic, encourages users to download a file named scan_facebook.zip.
The malicious code is a keylogger that intercepts keystrokes on the infected computer.
Anonymous announced a way to self-replicate, which the keylogger.

The spyware is connected to a server based in Egypt, which is only normal since they just hacked the site: The Muslim Brotherhood (Operation Brotherhood) since they themselves had tried to hack Anonymous :93:
