Anonymous Claims Responsibility for DDoS Attack Against the Bank of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (BANFANB) (August 17, 2024)
In August 2024, the Bank of the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (BANFANB) was targeted by a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack claimed by hacktivist groups associated with Anonymous, specifically a subgroup known as “Cyber Hunters” or “White Hunters.” The attack was part of a broader politically motivated cyber campaign against Venezuelan government institutions following the July 2024 presidential election.
