Alldas.de, the well known defacement archive, is once again looking for a home after a deal to move from its ISP fell through in the wake of a debilitating hack attack. Three weeks ago, Alldas was subjected to a week-long distributed denial of service attack which knocked the site - and its ISP Kvalito - offline.

Kvalito introduced filtering and the DNS record of Alldas.de was updated so that prospective hackers would be throwing attacks at the site against their local host instead.

Alldas.de's contract with Kvalito already on the point of expiry and worse followed when the ISP to which it planned to move dropped the hosting deal. This has left Alldas.de unavailable at a time of heightened interest in hacking activity.
