Cadastre registry: How the double cyberattack occurred

Hackers have gained access to files amounting to 1.2 gigabytes - One of the agency's servers was breached - Efforts to combat the attack continue

Newsroom July 19 11:10

“We are still in the response phase,” sources familiar with the developments following the ongoing cyberattack on the Cadastre told protothema.gr on Friday morning.

According to the latest information, hackers seem to have accessed files amounting to 1.2 GB out of a total of 200 terabytes. The same information insists that the documents in question do not contain sensitive personal data but are mainly public documents, such as payroll records. Additionally, it is denied that hackers gained access to the Ministry of Digital Governance’s database.

According to Kathimerini, the cyberattack was carried out from two points: in the first case, hackers intercepted user passwords from employees at the central offices of the Hellenic Cadastre and gained access to their computers, and in the second case, one of the IT system’s servers was breached.

From the outset, all relevant state agencies and a team of crisis response specialists, including the Cyber Defense Directorate of the Hellenic National Defense General Staff (GEETHA), have been mobilized to combat the cyberattack.

The actions taken and ongoing aim to isolate networks and systems to cut off any access to malicious users or software.

Based on the current analysis by specialists, it is reported that the attack has not succeeded in compromising any critical infrastructure, and all digital services remain operational, as highlighted by the Ministry of Digital Governance.
