Today Egypt’s Ministry of Finance portal mof.gov.eg got a DDoS attack.The flood of traffic slammed the servers and knocked the site offline.So the people who rely on it for tax filings, budget tracking or just checking balances hit a wall. As a result government digital services and finaical platforms were down for a while and officials are scrambling to bring everything back online.In short a single attack rippled through the ministry’s daily workflow giving everyone a hard time.
Egypt has been repeatedly caught in the crossfire of regional hacktivist campaigns.Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen have all faced sustained DDoS attacks, defacements, data leaks and illicit access to exposed ICS assets from ideologically aligned coalitions operating across the region.These countries signed peace of board so thats why hactivist do all thoes countries who signed.
