Buddhipongse Punnakanta

 

The Thailand Computer Emergency Response Team (ThaiCERT) has announced that hackers tried to break into the Digital Economy and Society Ministry’s website, www.mdes.com, last Thursday (August 27) with the aim of bringing down the server.

 

Minister Buddhipongse Punnakanta said ThaiCERT was able to get rid of the hackers within an hour, adding that this was a test of the security of his ministry’s website.

 

According to ThaiCERT, there have been 1,474 instances of cyberthreats in the first half of this year. Of the threats, 36 per cent were found to be malicious code, 23.5 per cent related to fraud and 19 per cent related to vulnerability.

    They tried that with the tourist sector. The red lights aren't even blinking now. What does the manual say to do?

    They do not say how many were successful .... probably because that would  show massive loss of face.
