H@ck3rs From Asia Att@cked Our Portal During Ekiti, Osun Guber. Polls – INEC
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has revealed that att@cks were sent from Asia to its Election Result Viewing Portal (IReV Portal) during Ekiti and Osun governorship polls held earlier this year.
Professor Mahmood Yakubu, Chairman of the electoral body, disclosed this on Friday while delivering a keynote speech at a stakeholders’ conference on election result management in Abuja.
At the event, organised by YIAGA Africa, a civil society organisation (CSO), Prof. Yakubu said, “Another technical concern for us is the repeated attempts to br3ak through our cyb3r s3curity system for the portal,” .
“Our engineers reported several cyber@ttacks on the portal during the Ekiti and Osun governorship elections, some of them from as far as Asia. I am glad to note that all of them failed.
“However, while we are confident in the security solutions that we have deployed for IReV and all our web presence, we must remain vigilant and continue to strengthen our defences. We have tasked our engineers to do everything possible to fully protect the IReV and all our web resources,” he noted.
