Cyber-attack against the norwegian website provider Coretek

The company Coretrek was probably exposed to a denial of service attack on Monday, similar to what we saw against the Norwegian authorities last week. It affected several websites. A denial of service attack, also called a DDoS attack, takes place when someone uses a network of computers to send large amounts of traffic to a website. As a result, the website is unable to receive all the traffic and goes down.

According to the Telegram channel of the Russian hacker network Killnet, Russian hackers are behind the attacks. This time it is the hacker group "NoName057" who will be behind it. On NoName057's Telegram channel it is claimed that they have hit Bastø Fosen and Boreal. These websites have also been down. They also have Coretrek as a supplier.
