“ASAN Login” system of Electronic Government Development Center hacked
In the second stage of the next project of the
State Housing Development Agency - the Yasamal residential complex, technical
malfunctions which caused an additional load were detected in the information
systems of state bodies that are in the public domain before the start of the
process of a discount sale of 815 apartments on September 15, 2022.
Taking into account the possible impact of the
mentioned cases on the objective results of the housing selection process with
preferential terms at the current stage, the time of the sale of the apartment
has been postponed.
During the preliminary investigations conducted
by the State Security Service of the Republic of Azerbaijan, it was determined
that there was a large-scale cyber-attack on the “ASAN Login” system of the
Electronic Government Development Center using IP ranges belonging to global hosting
located outside the country.
Investigative and operational-technical
measures are being carried out within a criminal case initiated under Article
273.4 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan (Illegal interference
in a computer system or computer data of socially significant infrastructure
facilities) in the main investigation department of the State Security Service.
Currently, the mentioned cyber-attack channels
have been fully detected and blocked in cooperation with the relevant state
authorities.
The public will be informed about the date of
housing selection with favorable conditions as soon as possible.
