"Army" Anonymous hackers

  A group of hackers (hackers) the world's largest, Anonymous (anonymous) who was behind many attacks Denial of Service (DDoS) against many of the various government websites to steal personal information . However, to date information about this team as well as the launching hacker mystery of the little world known as the name of them.
Victims of Anonymous is the latest security firm Strategic Forecasting Inc. (Stratfor) based in the United States. The incident comes at Christmas last 25-12 as Anonymous claims to have stolen thousands of emails, passwords, credit card data of customers of this company to steal over $ 1 million and take "donations" for many different charities (with all receipts to prove). This group also included a link to the social networking site Twitter to showcase the list of trusted client of Stratfor, including army, air force and police Miami (Florida). Anonymous says "army" can obtain credit card details Stratfor partly because no data encryption.
While Anonymous claims to have obtained important information of 4,000 customers that are providing service Stratfor, Stratfor said that the author of a service break is not clear yet confirmed the identity as the perpetrator is Anonymous. However, Stratfor has to immediately inform idle servers and e-mail. If this is true, then Stratfor significant result is reckless and a lesson to any company any security not only in America. Any doubt as a basis when each spoke Anonymous responsibility for the attack credit card companies such as Visa, MasterCard and PayPal as well as some firms in the music industry. And yet, Anonymous warned, the stars in the music world: Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift ... will be the goal of "attack" followed in the coming days.
Anonymous existed long before the WikiLeaks scandal occurred, but the "army" hacker is still "unknown" to the media world. The only symbol associated with the name of Guy Fawkes masks in the comic "V for Vendetta". Last forever, thanks to aggressive media coverage of the press in the world, especially after WikiLeaks along with a number of improvements in network attack tools group, Anonymous was quickly "famous". Despite the name Anonymous is everywhere present, but information about the group of hackers in this world-class hardly. How many team members in action and how far the organization is so obscure as the name of the group.
Last year the Guardian newspaper (UK) is a character interview is considered the group's spokesman, 22-year-old, nicknamed "Coldblood" (Cold Blood) of Anonymous as well as the intention of this group. Coldblood described hacker group Anonymous as a "floating" of about 1,000 people and has no "head". Its members are young, but there are "parents" of information technology professionals and those who have the time ... Also, Anonymous is a word that represents the group of individuals, not to disclose identification, showing the multi-dimensional perspective on many topics. Coldblood also said that members are aware that they are breaking the law, but feel safe in the majority of supporters. The group has a certain number of principles, represented by majority rule. If one member to the forum of the community and say, "Let's attack this group" and the majority agrees, that forum will become a target.
Theft of data Stratfor is one of a series of "attacks" in two months that Anonymous is suspected as the culprit. The service must include detailed personal information of 16,000 Finns were posted on a web page to share documents, or a host website and the government of President El Salvador attack ... Police and other organizations security in many countries but not to see the first penetration into the war with hackers continue.
