AJK condemns the cyber attack on "Sbunker"
The online media platform "Sbunker" was the target of a major cyber attack today, resulting in a compromise of its content.
"Sbunker wants to inform the public that today, 16 July, its website www.sbunker.org underwent a coordinated and sophisticated cyber attack. We are back online and are working to recover the content which has been temporarily compromised. Although we managed to save most of our content, the attackers were able to delete the last four months’ worth of content. The full evaluation of the damage caused by this malicious operation is still ongoing. However, judging from the extent and sophistication of the attack we can conclude that this operation was carried out by a group of professionals.", it is said in their announcement.
AJK condemns the attack and sees it as an attempt against freedom of media and expression in Kosovo.
AJK calls upon the Cyber Unit of the Kosovo Police to investigate the case with priority and to inform the media involved about the results of the investigation.
