Party scene is rather a subdued. Reporter well heather, people right now are starting to come out of the game. But as you mentioned a little bit earlier, it is much quieter than usual for a friday night here on the south side of campus for most of cals greek houses. The Fraternity Council posted the message on facebook saying they are voluntarily suspending all social events until they figure out how to make their parties safer. Friday game night means big crowds for cal football. And for fraternity parties on the south side of campus. But this week. Many greek houses were empty and quiet. Uc berkeley icc and the council of sorority announced online they condemned the two alleged sexual assaults reported at two different frat houses within ten minutes of each other last friday. In response they are suspending all social events until they reassess safety at frat parties. It is fair to blame alcohol. Its a cultural issue that we need to deal with. And so it is for sure. Reporter Berkeley Police have not identified the frat houses being investigated or whether the report of the hacks involve attacks involve members of the fraternity or outsiders. I take a lot of precaution when i go out or come back because it is scary living by a bunch of frat. Reporter Campus Security have increased patrols. On both sides of campus recently weve done extra patrols to address that behavior. Reporter spill there were some parties at unregistered frat houses. The agreement is only for registered fraternities. Theres a number of unregistered fraternities that still have parties, houses that still have parties. Reporter students are glad that the ifc is taking proactive steps and hopes that it will lead to safer parties in the long run. Theyre doing the right thing and they need to take as long as they need. Reporter in the statement the ifc says they commend the victims courage in stepping forward. The council is expected to meet tomorrow at 3 00 p. M. To discuss their policies. All right, jana did they say exactly what constitutes a frat party . Reporter heather t is clear tonight, its a little bit of a gray area here. The cal Public Affairs Department Says that they do not have a strict definition, but if they see people coming in from outside, loud music, or alcohol that they would consider that to be a violation of this current voluntary suspension. All right, Jana Katsuyama live for us there on the cal campus, thank you. And now to some developing news in the federal Investigation Underway tonight following a cyber attack that slowed traffic to some of the internets most popular websites including twitter, netflix, and amazon. If you are online today you may have noticed some sites were slow to respond. Tech experts say that a series of denial of service attacks targeted the company back east that routes internet traffic. While they tried to fend off the attack, Internet Service was disrupted or slowed. This outage map shows the effects both on the west and east coast. As ktvu jesse gary reports we dont know who is behind the attacks. What we will do is take a look at some of the hackers network. Reporter the computer engineer jeffrey falls is in a constant fight with Cyber Security. Todays breach comes as no surprise. Theres some hacking going on there. Yeah, i have a lot of errors in my system. Theres some hacking going on. Reporter not just some, but starting around 7 00 eastern time the first of two large scale Denial Service or bbos attacks impacted servers by preventing the loading of web pages. This affected popular apps and websites such as twitter, spotify, comcast, netflix. Some web browsers at campbells Orchard Valley network noticed slow service to the sites or no service at all. This happened since yesterday. Right. This morning. We are trying to get some other sites. I thought it was odd that i kept getting nothing. Reporter the department of Homeland Security is monitoring the situation. The rules of the road when it comes to Cyber Security in large part are well established. Were saying that it is increasing amount of the attacks against the foundation of the internet so it is a good example of this. The lab says that the areas of cyber vulnerability, they migrated from phones, laptops, tablets other smart techs. Refrigerators, Security Systems and todays inconvenience could have a broader impact tomorrow. And there are some services that use these websites with a Critical Service where it will be much more than doing something else. So depending on what site that youre going to that it could be a bigger deal. They will keep them checking and rechecking, their personal systems. And a day with a few hours of inconvenience that will become something more. They say a third with major disruptions, that they will be returning or they have returned to many of the apps and websites. Jesse gary ktvu fox 2 news. This kind of attack is known as the denial of service when that web service is flooded with fake requests overwhelming their systems, so they can respond to real requests. They said that they received requests from tens of millions of their ip addresses since they have been infected with a malware code released on the web in a matter of weeks. They managed to restore service 11 hours after that initial attack. A federal grand jury in oakland indicted a russian man on charges that he hacked into computers belonging to mountainview based linkedin. His arrest stems from a hack of 100 million accounts, but apparently not relate today the hacks of the dnc or Hillary Clintons campaign. The u. S.

We are following a pair of big water main breaks for the east bay and the latest is in alameda near their old base there. Water was shooting up that we could see it from our camera here on ktvu at the tower there across. The Department Says that the break was caused by a construction crew that would hit a sixinch line that happened at 6 30 this evening at main street and singleton avenue. They are working to stop that and that they will take at least five hours to make repairs to restore the Water Service to the area. And they ruptured in oakland this morning, turning the street into a flowing river there happening at 8 15 along montana street and oaklands diamond district. They say ten homes suffered damage including two apartment buildings, a neighbor telling us that at one point that they gave way beneath their feet and that they needed to pull them out of the water. The mud crews would plan to work all night hoping to restore service by 7 00 tomorrow morning. And tonight efforts to enact their use of force policy in the San Francisco police department, they hit a snag. San francisco interim chief Tony Jacqueline says that the department and the police union are at an impact. He said that they would agree on most issues, except for moving vehicles that would be forbidden. They need to be able to use force in some circumstances citing examples such as the attack in nice, france last july. There is new information for the San Francisco Police Officer that was shot in the head last week. He is now out of the hospital being treated in a rehabilitation facility. The officer kevin downs had had a skull fracture. Officer downs is now able to move his right arm, although his left leg is still paralyzed.

Reporter current protections in oakland are not enough. Council member rebecca kaplin agrees. The rent increases are the highest. Kaplin is hoping that voters will pass measure jj in november.
