What did we learn from #opIsrael?

#opIsrael was announced a month before the initial attack. A lot of people were upset because the attackers put a link to the Holocaust. The same attackers are initiating the #opUSA operation and the attack is announced to be on the 7th of May 2013.

So what did we learn from #opIsrael?

#opIsrael hit various website and the attack claims to have cost the Israeli country a lot of money. So what did Israel do to keep an eye on the attack? Israel initiated an hotline for people that were suffering from an cyber attack. This was a great success as a lot of people used the hotline to inform the government about the attacks.
The question that rises is; Will the USA initiated an similar project to provide their citizens an platform to report the attacks that will be initiated on the 7th of May.

ING lost millions because of a simple mistake

In the Netherlands the ING bank suffered from a single point of failure in their infrastructure and they were offline for 3 days. Some people became millionaires in seconds and some lost all their savings.This cost them a lot of money. The #opUSA operation seems to target financial sectors. So be warned.
