Here we go with the second timeline of August covering the main cyber attacks occurred between August 16th and August 31st.

I have just published the second timeline of July, and now I can finally post the statistics for the same month. Let’s start saying that this month was surprisingly rich in terms of events (I collected 130 records vs. 96 in June), maybe the crooks wanted to complete their home works before going to vacation.
