Dealing with Computer Problems Impacting Public Service Websites: Investigation into Recent Hacker Attacks

2023-10-15 17:17:00

Computer problems disrupted the operation of several public service websites on Sunday. This is particularly the case of the FPS Finances, which reported, via X (formerly Twitter), a “hacker attack”.

The Palais Royal website is also experiencing problems and is not accessible.

Several websites of Belgian institutions had already been victims of a DDOS (denial of service) cyberattack on Thursday. That of the Royal Palace, the Prime Minister and the Senate were then made temporarily unavailable.

Instead of the home page there was a message in English referring to Belgian aid provided to Ukraine, including the promise made on Wednesday to send F-16s in 2025.
