hacking for a
politically or socially motivated purpose[ISO/IEC 27032:2012]
Hacktivists seek
to gain control over computer systems or websites to manipulate them to promote
a cause, make a political statement or disrupt services, for example, by
overloading websites with botnet attacks, which can deny or prevent the
legitimate use of the service. [NZ CSS:2011]
Hacktivism uses
cyber attacks based on political motivations who use cyber sabotage to promote
a specific cause. As opposed to the hacking industry intent on data theft,
hacktivism is not motivated by money and high visibility is key. Hacktivisms
are motivated by revenge, politics, ideology, protest and a desire to humiliate
victims. Profit is not a factor. And visibility is key: whats the point of
embarrassing someone if you they didnt know who performed the attack?
