The below message was just received from the Cleveland, Ohio (USA) FBI office, related to a DDoS attack currently being done against financial institutions. --> The FBI has received reporting that DDOS attacks are underway against multiple financial institutions. If you work for a financial institution that has been victimized, please feel free to contact me. If you notice that any of your facilities come under a DDoS attack or any other unusual activity please notify the appropriate parties within your organization right away. It is common for a DDoS attack to cover up other actions or operations by keeping the IT & Security teams busy fighting the DDoS and in turn being unavailable to notice or even handle the real attack. Please pass this along to your IT and security staff. - Robert (arch3angel)
