Anonymous and state-sponsored hackers threaten energy sector

The number of cyber attacks against energy sector is increased creating great concerns within the security community. Oil and gas firms are subject to continuous offensives moved by hacktivists and state-sponsored attacks. Anonymous is conducting a new campaign dubbed OpPetrol to protest against the West’s domination of the worlds resources. The hackers may conduct distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, steal sensitive information from corporate systems, disclose sensitive information gathered during the attacks, deface their social media accounts and websites.”]
