"Echo of Moscow" The second day is opposed to DDOS-Atak, the chief editor of the radio station said

The editor-in-chief of the Ekho Moscow radio station Alexei Venediktov reported on the morning of May 7 that the Internet site echo.msk.ru may have been attacked by hackers. “Echo’s site opens, but slowly - we are under attack,” Venediktov wrote on Twitter .

Recall that the DDOS attacks of "Echo of Moscow" reported the day before , when the opposition "march of millions" took place in the capital. Then, the problems were reported about the problem "Rain" and the site Slon.ru, usually helping "rain" with broadcasts in case of problems.

Earlier on Sunday, the site of the Kommersant newspaper, which was subjected to the strongest DDOS attack in a few years, was not available for users. In March 2008, after the start of the DDOS attack, the publication website was not available for several days. In February of this year, the Kommersant Publishing House filed an application with the Bureau of Special Technical Events of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Moscow about the initiation of a criminal case regarding the DDOS attacks, which brought down the site four years ago.

A number of government sites were also subjected to hacker attacks. So, the sites of the government and Vladimir Putin did not work for about half an hour. The press secretary of the Prime Minister Dmitry Peskov called the hooligans of the hackers responsible for the attacks.

“To be honest, I don’t know that the sites did not work forty minutes, there was no information,” Peskov said. “Well, it’s not scary, because now all the activities are restored. Well, hooligans, hooligans. Of course, some attempts to establish those who are involved in this, I am sure, will be made.”
