The British government's Wiki was visited by hackers.
The UK's set of environmental, food and rural issues suffered a huge loss when the agency's online wiki was visited by hackers and edited.
The wiki Contract Contract page is designed with the goal of opening and further transparency of government policies.
However, it seems that hackers are not very responsive to this campaign, so just a few hours after the wiki's online site it has suffered dozens of consecutive attacks. Hackers have also made modifications and left very beautiful words. Not only that, the hacker left behind a picture of a swastika (swastika) on this site.
David Miliband, the Chief of the Office of the UK's Ministry of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, acknowledged there was some anticipated risk before the wiki site was posted online.
' This is an entirely new field for the government, ' said Miliband on his official blog site. ' As expected, we faced a number of issues that are particularly relevant to editing articles that are not good. We will make changes to the implementation policy '.
The site was quickly lowered after there were more than 170 people conducting illegal editing.
Immediately after the attack, Miliband said the openness of wiki pages was the main cause of the attack.
