THE SO-CALLED “CYBER TERRORISTS” SEEM TO BE NASTIER as even on a Sunday the House of Representatives website was breached and defaced by suspected hackers.
A certain 3MUSKETEERZ even bragged about the hacking before Sunday noon, along with the troll face comic meme.
“You’ve been hacked” message flashed on the left side of the House’s landing page, www.congress.gov.ph.
“Happy April Fullz kahit October pa lang!” the text also reads.
House Secretary General Reginald ‘Reggie” Velasco confirmed in a statement that the website experienced “unauthorized access” earlier Sunday.
Velasco assured that the House is addressing and investigating the matter with the help of the cybercrime arm of the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and law enforcement agencies.
It was noted that the House website was no longer accessible as of 12:55 p.m. on Sunday.
