This article is co-written by Kfir Damari and Andre Oboler.It details the methodology and tools used by the Team Evil hackers who attacked pro-Israel websites in 2006.
Kfir wrote an early analysis of a defacement against a web server, during the Team Evil attack spree against pro-Israeli servers in the cyber terrorism aftermath of Israeli operations in the Gaza strip.
Andre Oboler, administrator of “Zionism On The Web” and a PhD Candidate in the Computing at Lancaster University, UK, requested Kfir’s assistance with an ongoing attack by Team Evil. The results of this joint effort at tracking an analyzing the hackers activities created this case study.
