KNF website hacked

Poland's financial market regulator KNF website has been hacked last week “KNF has identified an attempt of external intrusion in the IT system servicing its website but its internal IT systems are safe,” KNF spokesperson Jacek Barszczewski wrote in a statement. “Internal systems of reporting by the supervised entities function independently of the IT system servicing the website and remain safe,” he added, assuring that the banking sector has not been affected by the security breach. Appropriate institutions, including the Internal Security Agency (ABW) have been notified and the investigation is ongoing. For few days the website has been inoperational, but has been restored as of press time.
