CBI Website | Pakistan Hackers | Cyber Attack | IT Act | Pakistan Cyber Army 48 hours & counting; CBI website remains offline

Exposing India’s weakness in information technology, the premier investigative agency, Central Bureau of Investigation has failed to restart its hacked official website even after 48 hours.

The CBI website (http://cbi.nic.in/), which was hacked by Pakistani hackers, remained offline on Monday, Dec 6. The failure indicates the credibility of Indian IT sector, which is considered as one of the leading exporter of ‘brainees’ to the Western countries.
The official website of CBI was hacked on Friday, Dec 3 night by unknown hackers, who claimed themselves as “Pakistan Cyber Army”. The hackers infiltrated to the root level and left a note saying that the attack was a response to the hacking of Pakistan websites by Indian hackers.


The note left by Pakistan hackers read, “This attempt is in response to the Pakistani websites hacked by ‘Indian Cyber Army’. We told u before too…we are sleeping but not dead”. The note ended with “Pakistan Zindabad.”

Later on Saturday, CBI officials released a statement describing that they were working hard to fix he issue and also registered a case under Information Technology Act against ‘unknown’ hackers.

“A case has been registered in this connection in the cyber crime cell of the CBI and efforts are underway to restore the website with the help of National Informatics Centre and the CBI cyber security experts,” the statement said.
