TRENGGALEK - More than 60 official websites belonging to agencies/institutions, including the Trenggalek Regency Government website, were hacked by hackers when there were many protests against the discourse of postponing elections and extending the term of office of the president.

Although the hacker's "attack" has now been partially corrected, this action had made the Trenggalek Regency Government's information system seriously disrupted.

"The front page of the website managed by the regional government has changed and changed to a photo of a group of teenagers carrying a poster with a special message on it," said Head of the Trenggalek Regency Communications and Information Office, Edif Hayunan Siswanto, quoted by Antara, Thursday, April 14.

The disturbance pattern that appears generally occurs on the front page of the web.

The hacker posted an image of a group of young men holding small posters that read, 'only crazy people think this country is fine!!!.

The writing is emblazoned on a number of website addresses managed by the local government.

That look appeared for several hours, before finally changing.

But seen at 08.30 WIB, the view has changed again. This time the website is not accessible to the public.

In addition to writing a tone of disappointment, below the poster's image it reads 'Hacked by Anon7, this country has been pawned by rogue officials who only care about their own class. #OpIndonesia #CorruptGovernmentanonganteng @protonmail.com'.

Edif revealed that there are around 50 website addresses or subdomains managed by the Trenggalek Regency government.

According to him, the address that was hacked was a page used by a number of regional apparatus organizations (OPD).

"The hacked were 50 website addresses. As for the exact hours of the hack, I don't know, but there are reports that they have occurred at dawn," said Edif.

Currently, the Trenggalekkab-CSIRT team is still carrying out the repair process so that the domain name system will recover quickly.

Including analyzing the gaps where hackers can enter and change dozens of sub-domains managed by the local government.
