An Algerian hacker group, “Jabaroot DZ,” attacked the CNSS on April 8, leaking personal data of nearly 2 million employees. While much of the data was found to be inaccurate, the breach raised concerns about the CNSS’s digital security. The attack was reportedly in retaliation for Moroccan hackers’ actions.
The cyber conflict between Morocco and Algeria escalated as Moroccan hackers retaliated for a previous breach of Morocco’s National Social Security Fund. They infiltrated Algeria’s Social Security Fund, leaking 13 GB of sensitive data. This marks a dangerous escalation in the ongoing digital war between the two nations.
The Colombo Chief Magistrate’s Court has directed Sri Lanka’s Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRCSL) to block websites and social media accounts distributing illegally obtained data from Cargills Bank. This follows a data breach involving sensitive customer information. The bank has reassured customers that operations remain unaffected and cybersecurity measures are strengthened.
