CYBERATTACK CRASHES ISRAELI GOVERNMENT WEBSITES

A cyberattack crashed a number of Israeli government websites on Monday,
according to the country’s cyber officials.

The Israel National Cyber Directorate blamed the outages on a denial-of-service
or DDoS attack. Such incidents typically involve outside attackers directing
waves of inauthentic traffic at a website, temporarily rendering it
inaccessible.

Ministries of health, justice, welfare were affected, as was the prime
minister’s office, the news site Haaretz reported.

The incident is the largest ever cyber attack carried out against Israel,
Haaretz reported.

The defence establishment and the National Cyber Directorate have declared a
state of emergency to study the extent of the damage.

Checks were being carried out on key Israeli websites and on government
infrastructure such as the electric and water companies to see whether they were
also attacked.



The attack hit websites using the ".gov.il" domain, which is used for all
government websites except for those related to defence, the security
establishment said.

Despite the interruption in services, some of the websites can still be viewed
on smartphone.



Officials did not immediately say who might be behind the cyberattack.

Mike Sexton, a cyber and Middle East policy expert, said this sort
denial-of-service attack is unsophisticated but requires a substantial amount of
resources.



"Israel and Iran have recently been engaged in a low-level cyber tit-for-tat, so
Iran is an obvious source to attribute, but we should not jump to conclusions,"
Mr Sexton told The National.

"Iran possesses much more sophisticated capabilities, so I think it would be
unusual for them to use this sort of primitive attack."

He noted that Israel has now taken steps to support the international sanctions
regime targeting Russia, where it had previously remained neutral and acted as a
mediator between Russia and Ukraine.

"This kind of attack is very characteristic of Russian patriotic hackers. We saw
them use this same kind of attack against the Estonian government in 2006," he
said.

Gil Messing, spokesman for Israel-based Check Point Software Technologies, said
it was unlikely any significant damage was caused.

“This is usually done to send a message and create a lot of buzz. It isn’t
necessarily an infiltration or grabbing of information,” he told Bloomberg.
