Cyber attack suspect worked out of ‘bunker’

Spain says a Dutch citizen arrested there on suspicion of launching the biggest cyber attack in history, which disrupted global internet services, operated from a bunker and had a van capable of hacking into networks anywhere in the country.

Investigators say the suspect travelled in Spain using his van “as a mobile computing office, equipped with various antennas to scan frequencies”.

Agents arrested him last week, complying with a European arrest warrant issued by Dutch authorities. He is accused of attacking the anti-span watchdog group Spamhaus.
