More than two weeks after it was hacked, BJP website restored; but with only one static page
French security researcher claims party has lost its data and doesn't have backups
New Delhi: Two weeks after the official website of BJP was hacked, it was restored on Friday with only one static page that displayed the first list of candidates of the party which was announced on Thursday.
The party website was under ‘maintenance’ after Union Minister for Information and Technology Ravi Shankar Prasad had admitted that it was hacked.
Taking to Twitter, French security researcher, who goes by the name of Elliot Alderson, said, “After weeks of « maintenance » the @BJP4India website is back… Well, it’s not really the website it’s just 1 static page.”
“That confirms what I said: following the hack, they lost everything and they did not have any backups,” he added.
Ravi Shankar Prasad had refused to comment if the party had lost its data in the online attack

Iran’s Fars reports missiles hit US warship near Hormuz after it ignored warnings from IRGC
Tehran/Washington: Iran’s Fars News Agency has reported that two missiles struck a US Navy vessel near Jask in the Strait of Hormuz, citing local sources.
According to the report, the vessel was hit after it allegedly ignored warnings from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to halt.
There has been no official confirmation from US authorities on the reported incident so far.
The development comes shortly after US President Donald Trump said Washington would begin “Project Freedom” to guide stranded ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
US Central Command said the operation would involve 15,000 military personnel along with more than 100 land- and sea-based aircraft, warships and drones.
Further details about the reported strike and any damage or casualties remain unclear.
