Media Statement on the hacking of DOE-GEMP website

At around 6:00 PM on 27 July 2024 (Saturday), the Government Energy Management Program (GEMP) website of the Department of Energy (DOE) was hacked and defaced. We immediately took the system offline and began closely coordinating with the Philippine National Computer Emergency Response Team (NCERT) and the system’s developer to address the possible vulnerabilities of the website.

 

We assure you that the DOE is committed to keeping its systems secure and will continue to upgrade these systems. 

 

While we are exerting all efforts to restore the website to full operation at the soonest possible time, we are also implementing our strategies to make our systems more resilient. ###
