CAC Website Hacked; Data Of Registered Businesses Lost by solaugo(m): 10:41pm On Aug 26, 2014
The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) alerted members of the public its website had been hacked leading to disruption of its current online company registration exercise.
The commission said it viewed the disruption as a deliberate attempt to sabotage the ongoing efforts to deploy a new online registration system by October 1, as announced by the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment.

It however said that all necessary steps were being taken to configure a new registration system.

Normal service would be available by Monday.

"We apologise to all our customers and the general public for the disruption and assure them of our commitment to overcome the challenges soonest," CAC said.

In another development:

The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) couldn’t fix its system that registers businesses as at yesterday after being disrupted for more than ten days, Daily Trust has gathered.

CAC electronic platform has been under attack since the 15th of August, 2014 which disabled its online registration and denied thousands of customer’s access to their certificates.
Sources at the commission told Daily Trust that the services were not restored as at closing hours yesterday. Efforts to speak to Director, Public Affairs, CAC, Mr Churchill Williams, who promised earlier that the services will be restored yesterday, proved abortive.

But the source said the engineers are still working to restore the services any moment from now.
On Friday, the CAC, in a statement it issued, accused saboteurs of deliberate attempt to disrupt the on-going efforts to deploy a new on-line registration system by 1st October, 2014 as announced by the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment.

There was practically "server downtime" at the CAC's headoffice in Abuja last week Thursday and Friday. At least, that's what we were made to believe. Has there been anytime CAC never had server issues
And the situation spills to all CAC zonal offices nationwide.
