Subj : Re: Hack statistics To : All From : Geo. Date : Sun Mar 04 2001 10:28 pm From: "Geo." Everything gets hacked, but it seems to me most of the sites getting hacked are sites where the admin has just never bothered to secure the known and patched exploits. More than 90% of the sites that get hacked get hacked via a known and completely patchable exploit. The guys over at attrition.org don't run Unix vs NT numbers, in fact they don't even run Linux vs NT numbers. They seem to like to break things down into different distros and different versions so you never get this picture. It always NT and W2K and 15 different kinds of unix all in separate charts Also what you don't see is the number of sites that get repeat hacked, there are even a few sites that I've seen show up on the defaced list 5 or more times.
