Webmaster rambling and mental notes
Breakdowns of Website Defacement by Platform
3/15/2008

SkiifGeek writes "Zone-H have anew posted the statistical stoppage of the collected website defacements from the last few years. Surprisingly, in 2007 more Linux servers suffered a successful attack than all versions of Windows, combined. Similarly, more Apache installations were successfully attacked than all IIS versions combined. A day after posting this data, Zone-H have questioned the appropriateness of postgraduate work to operate the archive. Despite the valuable earful* that can be gleaned from the service, it may soon be lost to the world. The natural next in line to the now-defunct Alldas archive of defaced websites, Zone-H's archive maintains records of over 2.6 million defaced sites but may be shut down due to the continuous accusations of impropriety leveled against them any time they disclose and mirror a reported defacement."
