The intervals between the times of detection of adjacent fishing attacks during the period from December 2008 through October 2010 are studied. The approximation of an unnormalized sample distribution for this time interval is fit to a linear-exponential theoretical curve. The assumption of a nonstationary flow of random events formed by the detection times of the fishing attacks is confirmed; this is studied in order to reveal coordinated hacker attacks.
