    Website of Indian Defense Ministry hacked, Chinese characters visible
  • The website of India's Defense Ministry was hacked today, with users being shown a message about an "unexpected error" and some Chinese characters on top of the screen.

    When the NewsBytes team tried opening the website at 6pm, the site couldn't be reached as it "took too long to respond."

    PTI quoted unnamed officials, who said they suspected China's involvement.

    Not the first time Indian government websites have been targeted
  • Last year, the Home Affairs website had to be taken down after a cyber attack was reported.

    Before that, the official website of the National Security Guard (NSG) was broken into and anti-India messages posted, allegedly by Pakistani operatives.

    In 2016, details were leaked from databases of seven Indian missions (Italy, Libya, Malawi, Mali, Romania, South Africa and Switzerland).
