Cyberattack on the Colonization Institute keeps its website offline
For more than twenty days, the official website of the National Institute of Colonization has been inaccessible. The cause: a cyberattack that, according to internal sources, was carried out from abroad.
Cyberattack on the Institute of Colonization leaves its website inactive.
The impact is limited to the website, without compromising the institutional database, according to spokespersons for the organization. The complaint has already been filed with the Prosecutor's Office , which has initiated an investigation to determine the origin and scope of the incident.
External attack and prolonged site downtime
The hacking reportedly occurred from outside the country, although those responsible have not yet been identified. The site remains down, affecting public access to key information about lands, settlements, and allotments.
The Prosecutor's Office is investigating the incident.
The complaint was filed by the Institute itself with the Attorney General 's Office. The case is being analyzed by cybercrime specialists, who are seeking to trace the point of entry and assess whether there were attempts to compromise sensitive data.
No internal data was compromised
Despite the site's downtime, the INC maintains that the information stored on its servers was not altered or stolen. The attack reportedly targeted only the portal's visible layer, leaving the backup infrastructure intact.
