Hackers attack Social Democrats’ website

The official website of the Social Democrats has been attacked by hackers. Party spokesperson Michal Kačírek said on Tuesday that the hackers had evidently attempted to alter the content on the party’s site or put it out of action. Though it has safeguards against such attacks the site was temporarily shut down for security reasons, Mr. Kačírek said. The Social Democrats’ website was previously attacked at the turn of this year while a far-right site posted hacked private emails from party chairman Bohuslav Sobotka in January.
