in 2007 Estonia fell under a cyber attack lasting a total of 22 days. Starting
from April 27 to 18th may.
The attacks were part of a wider political conflict between Estonia and
Russia . In April 2007, Russia-based attackers launched a series of attacks
against Estonian public and private sector organizations.
• Continues attack caused processing and buffer of the system which slowed down the devices.
• Use of bot/zombie effected by botnet effected the performance, response time and resulted
in complete loss of connection.
• Hackers broke into the Web site of the Reform
Party, posting a fake letter of apology from the
prime minister, Andrus Ansip, for ordering the
removal of the highly symbolic statue.
• The Estonian CERT analyze server logs and data to find out
who is behind the attacks.
• But to send out the command you will need to send out a
signal which also contains your IP which has been spoofed.
• CIA and the MI6 tech boffs will have to find the IP of the
attacker that went to spoof the IP for years.
