An Anonymous Attack on a Boston Children's Hospital

Anonymous began a network attack on the boston children's hospitl it was a typical denial of service attack. It knocked out not only the main web sit which prevented people from donating to the fund raising campaign, but also took down many more systems on the hospitals public network. The hospital called the police because what else can you do in a situation like this? Even though the police can't protect you against a cibr threat, you feel like there's no other option and it's good to inform them anyways.
