Dear colleagues,
Please find attached a Flash Note from SecDev produced by our Syria
operations group, on today's shutdown of the internet in Syria.
This shutdown has coincided with heavy fighting around Damascus
airport and the reported seizure of key military facilities by
rebels. In the past, the Syrian regime has shut off communications
prior to offensives, and this may have been the case today.
Alternatively, the shutdown may be related to rebel gains, and the
regime’s desire to limit communication of these events. Due to
foreign media restrictions in Syria, many use social media to
communicate with one another and with the international community
about events in the conflict, rendering this shutdown a critical
development in the ongoing crisis.
These Digital Security Reports are produced as part of an ongoing
activity executed by The SecDev Foundation, called the Syria
Digital Security Project. It seeks to improve the online safety and
security of the Syrian people and to enhance the free flow of
information in Syria. To this end, it provides information,
analysis, tools and resources dedicated to enhancing digital safety
and openness in Syria. The project is administered by The SecDev
Foundation, a Canadian not-for-profit organization, with funding
from granting bodies in North America.
You may find additional coverage of these events in articles posted
by Wired and Computerworld.
We welcome your feedback.
