Abstract

The mass use of the Internet as a trade and distribution tool has become the source of a new type of attack—the defacement of Web page content. Due to the nature of this activity, it is frequently referred to as Web graffiti. Indeed, there is a lot of commonality between real graffiti sprayed on walls and fences and its computer-based Web counterpart.
