Website of Philippines Vice President Jejomar Binay was inflicted by hackers on Sunday, said a spokesman Joey Salgado today. The site was down for more than fifteen hours, but no serious damage has been reported. At least five other websites have been hacked by the hackers who have also warned of hacking more government sites.
Website of Office of Vice President was also hit by hackers last year to show the vulnerability of it. The site contains information on OVP's programs, projects and services.
At about 4 p.m. (local time) yesterday the OVP website was hacked by PrivateX group. The website is hosted by Advanced Science and Technology Institute (Asti).
Facebook page of PrivateX group made fun of the Department of Health in their latest post. It also mentioned names of other websites to be hacked by them soon that includes websites of Optical Media Board, Senate Eletoral Tribunal and Philippine National Radiation Institute.
