Jaipur, April 29
Pakistani hackers targeted three Rajasthan government websites and defaced them with anti-India messages.
The Pakistani cybercriminals targeted multiple government websites in Rajasthan, with the latest being the Education Department's official portal.
On Tuesday, Rajasthan Education Minister Madan Dilawar took cognisance of the incident and activated the Department's Information Technology wing.
The "compromised" website has since been temporarily shut down while recovery operations are underway.
Cybersecurity agencies have also been notified, and an investigation has been launched to identify the hacking group responsible and assess the extent of any potential data breach.
As of now, no sensitive data leaks have been confirmed, but a comprehensive audit of all departmental systems is ongoing as a precautionary measure.
This incident follows a similar cyber attack on Monday, where hackers breached the websites of the Department of Local Self Government (DLB) and the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA), defacing them with pro-Pakistan propaganda. Both those websites have since been restored.
