Website of Czech Television hit by cyber attack

The website of Czech Television’s news site ČT24 came under DDoS attack but was successfully put back into operation during the night from Thursday to Friday, spokeswoman Karolína Blinková said. Czech Radio’s news site iRozhlas.cz was also down on Thursday evening, but it seems that this was not caused by a cyber-attack.

Several Czech government and private institutions have come under attack over the past two weeks with the Russian hacking group Killnet claiming responsibility and threatening Czech media.
