The interesting report in ZDnet about the cyber war around Kosovo is unique in describing the process. According to the report hacker groups on each side share information in order to make attacks more efficient. Some collect vulnerable web sites, while others use automatic defacement tools to attack.

On the positive side, the report states that at the time of writing, there is a ceasefire and parties are negotiating. Is there room for cyber peace along side cyber war?
