Reports emerge suggesting that HackNeT, in conjunction with the Cyber Army of Russia, is purportedly orchestrating distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks aimed at prominent Australian websites.
Among the entities purportedly targeted in these cyber assaults are Fremantle Ports, the largest and most active general cargo port in Western Australia; Sydney Opera House, a renowned venue for diverse performing arts events situated in Sydney, New South Wales; and AuditCo, a notable provider of audit services in Australia’s certification and compliance sectors.
In a statement attributed to HackNeT, the motive behind these cyber attacks appears to be a form of protest against the Australian government’s stance on Ukraine. The message conveyed emphasizes that the attacks are not intended personally but rather serve as a means of expressing discontent with governmental policies, directing any inquiries regarding these actions to the government’s handling of the Ukraine situation.
