в записную книжку Искал недорогой хостинг и наткнулся. свят, свят, свят... плюю три раза http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Bu The Russian Business Network (commonly abbreviated as RBN) is a multi-faceted cybercrime organization, specializing in and in some cases monopolizing personal identity theft for resale. It is the originator of MPack and an alleged operator of the Storm botnet.[1][2][3] The RBN, which is notorious for its hosting of illegal and dubious businesses, originated as an Internet service provider for child pornography, phishing, spam, and malware distribution physically based in St. Petersburg, Russia. By 2007, it developed partner and affiliate marketing techniques in many countries to provide a method for organized crime to target victims internationally.[4]... ...According to Spamhaus, RBN is “Among the world's worst spammer, child-pornography, malware, phishing and cybercrime hosting networks. Provides 'bulletproof hosting', but is probably involved in the crime too”.[11] RBN was the subject of an article[12] in the Washington Post on October 13, 2007, where Symantec and other security firms claim RBN provides hosting for many illegal activities, including identity theft and phishing. The article quotes a spokesman for Kaspersky Labs that the owners of RBN might not have directly violated the law as they primarily provide hosting services; their customers are apparently the ones violating laws..... ... has been alleged that the RBN's leader and creator, a 24-year-old known as Flyman, is the nephew of a powerful and well-connected Russian politician. Flyman is alleged to have turned the RBN towards its criminal users.[15] In light of this, it is entirely possible that recent cyber-terrorism activities, such as the denial of service attacks on Georgia and Azerbaijan in August 2008,[16] may have been co-ordinated by or out-sourced to such an organization. Although this is currently unproven, intelligence estimates suggest this may be the case.[17] А вы говорите всё хакеры да хакеры... |
