Teenagers arrested after using the Lizard Squad DDoS tool

Six British teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of attacking websites by using the Lizard Squads DDoS tool, the Lizard Stresser. Lizard Squad is the popular hacking crew that brought the online gaming networks Sony PlayStation Network and Microsoft Xbox Live with major Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks with major DDoS attacks. Law enforcement speculates the six teenagers are clients of Lizard Squad and rent their tool. None of the teenagers are believed to be a member of the hacking crew, neither was involved in the attacks that hit Sony and Microsoft last year.”]
