A group of Algerian hackers who attempted to attack the website of an Israeli tourist attraction found themselves interfering with that of a British castle more used to hosting teddy bears’ picnics.
The target was Belvoir Fortress near the Israeli city of Tiberias. The fortress, constructed by crusaders in the 11th century, was the site of historic battles between Christians, Muslims and Jews.
It has little but a name in common with Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, which was built on the site of a Norman castle and used by the Royalists during the English Civil War.
However the cyber attackers, a group by the name of Dz-SeC, evidently did not realise this.
