Some of the individuals with this power are hackers, characters that are illegal to enter websites, manipulating their information in order to destabilize their systems and make a profit in return for it. There is a group of hackers called Anonymous, who gather in clandestine forums of Internet to organize attacks to governmental pages or gru
By terrorists. Their aims are to protest and demonstrate to the world that they have the ability to change things.
Web
"We do cyber attacks because we can do it. The government needs to know that it does not have all the control. And people also need to know. Control is an illusion, and must be altered, "says one of its members in an interview for the CNN news network.
The most common cyber attacks carried out by hackers are called DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) or denial of service, in their translation into Spanish, which consist of sending requests for service at the same time, from different portals, to a Page with the aim of collapsing when it can not respond to all sites at once. Companies like Twitter, The New York Times, Netflix or PayPal have been victims of this type of attacks.
Hacker
A hacker who carries out these types of crimes earns money by doing so. These attacks are relatively easy to do. The fees range from $ 5 for a 300-second attack to 400 for a 24-hour attack, according to information from Kaspersky Lab, a computer security company. The price is also determined by the page to be attacked: if it has special protection against DDoS, for the hacker represents a greater challenge to penetrate your systems.
on-line
A hacker usually works by order, the client requests through a web page an attack (which eliminates the direct contact between him and the hacker) and everything is ready: in a matter of hours the hacker will act to destabilize the page To violate. The sites that offer these services sometimes reward the loyalty of their clients by awarding them additional points or prizes.
Many hackers are true visionaries in their business: they offer packages to their customers with special rates, depending on the duration of the attack: 300 seconds of attack are charged at $ 5 dollars, 600 seconds are charged at $ 10 dollars and 1,200 seconds are charged at $ 15 Dollars. The biggest share of the pages is $ 60 dollars per 10.880 seconds of attack.
Cybernetic
Some pages keep track of users who have requested attacks and the number of successful cases. Finally they are businesses that have to offer favorable figures that endorse the capacity of their services.
Many hackers are manipulated in the digital world as data hijackers: they enter the computers of thousands of users, steal their information and then send messages to the owners asking for money in return for the recovery of their data. The figures depend solely on hackers and their ambitions.
How many millions does a hacker earn from a cyber attack?
The hacker interviewed by CNN states: "We want the reconstruction of the Internet infrastructure, in a way that can be a public good. Universal encryption as a tool for data security was a decision that we could take as hackers. We believe that the role of a hacker is to support a new society and provoke thoughts of a better future for all. "
