Report: Cyber Jihad Set for Nov. 11

Security experts say a reported al-Qaeda cyber jihad attack planned against Western institutions should be treated with skepticism. The attack was reported by DEBKAfile, an online military intelligence magazine. The magazine said it intercepted an Oct. 29 “Internet announcement,” calling for a volunteer-run online attack against 15 sites. The operation is supposed to expand after its launch date until “hundreds of thousands of Islamist hackers are in action against untold numbers of anti-Muslim sites,” the magazine reported. Such an attack could be launched with a known software kit, called Electronic Jihad Version 2.0.”]
