The Ministry of Labor suffers a cyber attack
The Ministry of Labor and Social Economy reported this Wednesday that has been affected by a computer attack, as noted on his Twitter account.
The department headed by the Third Vice President of the Government and Minister of Labor and Social Economy, Yolanda Diaz, has pointed out that the technical managers of the Ministry and the National Cryptological Center are working together to determine the origin and restore normality as soon as possible.
This attack has occurred after last March the computer system of the State Public Employment Service (SEPE) received another 'cyberattack' that prevented access to its website.
The SEPE computer service was infected with 'ransomware', a malicious software that has the ability to encrypt files and lock computers with the idea of obtaining money in exchange for returning the system to normal operation.
