This modern approach offers users with a poor IT background the opportunity to be independent and creative in creating their own website. In this paper we present data collected from several websites monitored for various cyber-attacks. Moreover, we will describe and analyze security challenges that follow cyber-attacks. During the monitoring process we followed 15 web addresses over a period of nine months and collected 520 reports of various cyber-attacks.
