Massive Ransomware Attack On Israeli Websites Foiled

Hackers used Hebrew website Nagich to embed malicious code on thousands of Israeli websites. Code would deface the website with a message that read #OpJerusalem, Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine, and then initiate an automatic download for a Windows file tainted with ransomware. Hackers managed to deface many web pages with words Jerusalem is the city of Palestine but the file download did not start due to a coding error. McDonalds Israel branch and the news websites of Makor Rishon and Calcalist were the affected sites.”]
