Blackkatsecurity (Blackkatsec)
Blackkatsecurity (Blackkatsec) is a hacker group that is probably most recognized from their involvement in taking down the online communications channels shamikh1.net used by the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda in June 2011. They made their appearance on to the scene after years' of silence in a response to rumors that the attack may have been a government sponsored hack.

Blackkatsecurity released information as @Blackkatsec regarding the shamikh1.net attacks that proved otherwise. Blackkatsecurity is still believed to have formed as a rogue cell from government sponsored cyber security teams.

Blackkatsecurity, who's also known for their recruitment of potential talent showed up again during the 2011 PSN attacks and publicly confronted the hacking group Lulzsec. The confrontation appeared to be in regards to IRC channel conversations and agreements made that would open the door for 6 of the Lulzsec team to join the Blackkatsecurity group. Almost immediately after the confrontation a Lulzsec retirement was planned and Blackkatsecurity reportedly gained 6 new members. Following the recruitment of Lulzsec members' their activity once again went silent.
