ISLAMICITY IS ATTACKED. IslamiCity recommends other Muslim websites to be cautious in the wake of 9/11 anniversary.
(Los Angeles, 9/5/02) Hatred knows no bounds. For several hours, access to the servers which hosts the IslamiCity web site was disrupted by a "denial of service attack". No data was compromised during this attack. IslamiCity technical team is investigating the source of attack and worked tirelessly to secure all communication lines and servers. Earlier attacks were found to have originated from Tel Aviv which were reported to the appropriate law enforcement agencies.
IslamiCity condemns this action and believe that such attacks underminethe opportunity to enhance awareness and knowledge leading to a better understanding of people, faiths and cultures.
We recommend Muslim website operators to be alert and carefully monitor all activity. Any spikes in traffic or bandwidth utilization should be carefully looked into and recorded. Any type of threat should be reported immediately to FBI to be investigated as potential hate-crime. We also request you to share any abnormal activity (at your site) with IslamiCity. Sharing of information will help locate the perpetrators.
