International terrorist groups tied with Islamic fundamentalists are preparing unprecedented attack on the Internet. Consequences of this attack can be compared with September 11 disaster.
Terrorists aim at computer systems of large economical and financial centers of the West.
As it became known on Thursday, March 4, American analytic security centres warned their European colleagues regarding the possibility of such accident. American experts say that consequences of this terrorist attack in the Internet can be compared with tragic events of September 11 in New York.
Secret services of Western countries have already received data confirming that criminal groups are completing viruses of new generation. These new viruses can destroy not only world financial system and infrastructure, including electricity and water supply systems, but also entire branches of industry.
Experts suggest urgent transition from the present Internet system created in 70-s to new more protected system therein.
