**Executive Summary:** Zscaler's analysis of Internet traffic after the January 12, 2010 Haiti earthquake found a 1578% spike in URLs containing 'haiti' and a 5407% increase in bandwidth, and cautions that attackers rapidly exploited the event with SEO-based scams, fraudulent donation sites, and malicious web content; the report is a traffic-observation and warning rather than a technical malware or APT report.
