Israeli hackers tracked and publicly revealed 16 internet users who allegedly participated in a cyber-attack against Israel earlier this week, the Israeli website Nexter reported.

The Israeli hacker team Israeli Elite Force published early morning Wednesday a document listing the details of the attackers, including their names, countries of origin and various usernames and passwords.

According to the document, most participants in the OpIsrael attack, organized by Anonymous against Israel, are from Malaysia and Indonesia and the rest hail from Portugal, Great Britain, Italy, Switzerland, Finland, Algeria, and Saudi Arabia.

One of the Israeli hackers, nicknamed Buddhax, published photographs of some of the alleged attackers, procured by infiltrating their computers and taking pictures using their webcams.

"I'm not big hacker too… But im good enough to expose you," he wrote in a message that popped up on the attackers' computer screens. “Next time do not take part in OpIsrael. We know who you are, we know where you are. Long live Israel!”

On Monday, the pro-Palestinian "hacktivist' collective broke into the Israeli Education Ministry's website, as well as the websites of the Israel Postal Service and the Central Bureau of Statistics, Ynet reported.

Anonymous struck first in November 2012 after Israel's Operation Pillar of Defense assault on Gaza, and again on April 7, 2013. A YouTube video posted by the group on Sunday said it was acting in retaliation for Israel's "crimes against humanity" visited on the Palestinians.

Before Indonesian hacker are in full force in attacking Australia

21 November 2013| last updated at 02:51PM

SYDNEY: Australian police and central bank websites fell victim to cyber attacks Thursday with an Indonesian hacker claiming responsibility, reportedly demanding that Canberra apologise in an intensifying row over spying.

The row — triggered by reports that Australian spies tried to tap the phones of the Indonesian president, his wife and ministers — has pushed ties between Jakarta and Canberra to their lowest level since the turn of the century.

Officials called the attack on the Australian Federal Police and the Reserve Bank of Australia “irresponsible”, and said whoever was to blame could face prosecution.

“These attacks... will not influence government policy,” the federal police said in a statement.

“Activities such as hacking, creating or propagating malicious viruses are not harmless fun. They can result in serious long-term consequences for individuals, such as criminal convictions or jail time.”

Police officials said their site, which hosts no sensitive information, was operating when staff left work on Wednesday evening but it was down on Thursday morning.

The outage comes barely two weeks after activist group Anonymous Indonesia claimed responsibility for defacing more than 170 Australian websites to protest at reports of Canberra spying on its nearest neighbour and strategic ally.

Ties between the two countries have deteriorated after reports this week, based on documents leaked by US intelligence fugitive Edward Snowden, that Australia tried to listen to the phone calls of the Indonesian president, his wife and ministers in 2009.

A member of Anonymous Indonesia, using the hashtag #IndonesianCyberArmy, claimed responsibility for the latest attacks.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation contacted the hacker who said the sites were targeted “because (of) the act of spying by Australia”.

The federal police and central bank were targeted “because we think (they are) most important sites of government companies in Australia”.

The hacker added that the action was taken on behalf of “the people of Indonesia, and the Indonesian Origin cyber army”, and demanded that Canberra apologise.

“We’re going to strike again (unless) Australia apologises to the people of Indonesia.”

The Australian Federal Police would not comment on who might be responsible but said it was working with the Cyber Security Operations Centre and Australia’s Computer Emergency Response team to identify the hackers.

The central bank website was also targeted, with a spokesman saying that back-up systems ensured that while delays may be experienced the site remained operational.

“The bank has protections for its website, so the bank website remains secure,” the spokesman said.

Anonymous is believed to be a loosely organised hacker collective that conducts online attacks internationally.

I doubt if these Indonesian guys are actually "hackers"... :disagree:
Any moderate "hacker" knows how to wipe out data that can trace him/her back..
Most probably these were some "script kiddies" :unsure:

Now a days a lot of teenagers without proper skills get attracted towards "Hacktivism" and ends up using online available tools without any idea what's going behind the scene :no:

We need to admire their braveness though, And it is what Israeli manage to be caught :P

I believe some hacking software are available and can be used by teenagers (particularly during Indonesia vs Aussie internet war, this software are spread up)

Most real hackers are in IT Security Consulting Companies I believe :D
