On February 15, about ten websites of the cities that are in the same network CitySites, were under a DDoS-attack. The ones to suffer most from the attack were the websites of Kharkiv (057.ua), Zaporizhzhya (061.ua), and Mykolaiv (0512.com.ua). Also, the websites of Artemivsk, Luhansk, and Sumy were affected. According to the network’s tech support, the attacks are random as if the hackers were feeling out the websites’ defense. The websites of Donetsk, 62.ua, and Mariupol, 0629.com.ua, are beyond the hackers’ reach. Source: http://imi.org.ua/en/news/47756-network-of-city-websites-citysites-under-ddos-attack.html
