France’s Cybermalvalence has warned that many French websites have been hit by cyberattacks since Sunday night. However, the identities of the hacked websites have not been revealed.
The tweet includes a link to a list of dos and don’ts for hacking websites.
The French agency called the hacking incident a “perverted cyber attack.” According to the country’s National Information Security Agency, any such hacking website raises a claim that old information is removed or something new is added.
According to French media reports, in the event of a cyber attack, the government should immediately shut down the affected computers and leave evidence and hard drives, so that the investigation can work. Complaints have also been filed at the local police station.
Those involved in these cyberattacks face a prison sentence of two to seven years and a fine of 60,000 to 300,000 euros.
