THE WEBSITE OF the National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) is still down this afternoon, after an attempt was made to hack the site this morning.
A statement from the agency, which handles the assets and liabilities of the government, said that the website remains down as a “precautionary measure”.
They said they had “detected an unauthorised attempt to publish content on its website from a remote source”.
RTÉ News reports that the site briefly displayed the message “Long Live Peshmerga”, before it was suspended.
The NTMA statement added: “The website is hosted offsite with no connection to the NTMA’s IT systems or operations.
The Agency’s standard IT protocols took effect as soon as the unauthorised access attempt was detected. This suspension has no impact on the NTMA’s IT systems or operations.
“Access to the website will be restored as soon as possible”.

Roll on the eco warriors complaining about the erosion of our natural resources etc.
Is that not what eco warriors do though?
I say burn the lot. Then when there’s nothing left, out kids can weep into the ashes!
Loadsamoney!
I suppose looking ahead and seeing that massive swathes of habitat will disappear and not seeing that as a good thing is the alternative?
Fairly crap returns for a company with 77,000 hectares
I thought it was good for a company that has a very small time frame every year to harvest.
It has been to asked, what does a dry summer yield then?
Er, lots of smiles? :)
Er that don’t answer it for me. :-)
Pity that they burn all that peat in the power stations. Something not right about that
Did the forget about the peat, when they were chasing the Gov to become board na Water
I’d say the board had a good aul moan. ;-/
Well at least they’re scooping out the middle of Ireland and flogging it to the UK for their gardens and all that will be left is a great big brown swimming pool for further Irish heatwaves and bog snorkeling. They should have to subsidise compulsory swimming lessons on the national curriculum in exchange for the turf.
have your say
