There is no evidence to prove that the attack was authorized by NIMC, it might have been done by a rogue operative
🤣

Do you guys read what you write at all?

You are the one who did not read what he wrote!

The fact that the attack emanated from the NIMC IP address is not definitive proof that the staff who did it had official authorization to do it.

For example of you set up a free and open wifi in your house and one of your brothers or cousins uses it to send out scam emails or conduct a systems hack on a bank.

Investigators will definitely trace the origin of the hack to your wifi, does it mean then that you asked your brother to send out scam emails?

Most of you need to learn to apply common sense before you jump to pick holes in another person's comment!

True that. But if an attack is coming from "one IP" as the news claimed, and it wasn't blacklisted early, then they were not security conscious is what I'm saying.
Sure, real time protection.

You still didn't read 🤣 what you are writing. Attack doesn't mean hack.

Let me school you a bit since you what to sound intelligent by half.

NIMC should have made sure their infrastructure is secure such that no one should even carry out a DDoS attack from their systems unless sanctioned by state elements.

Once multiple requests hit a particular target from in-house components, their NextGen NSGs should flag it and stop the attack. It's simple.

NIMC doesnt have the technical know-how to carry out this attack!

NIMC that could not even safeguard our data. NiMC that grounded sim registrations for weeks of not months due to downtime from their end!

If they are the culprits then it says a lot about the priorities of our agencies! Rather than focus on doing things for the benefit of the people, they deploy their resources to cover up the rot!
Bros, DDoS doesn't need sophistication. Just keep hitting the site with request so others can not access it.

These things are not that hard. He never said hack.

Attack doesn't mean hack.

NIMC kept mute for years while national database was being comprised which Nigerian database was left in the hands of unquestionable elements who were racketeering from this illegal act.

That time that they used for hitting the site with requests, they should use it to improve their services!

NIMCs mandate is identity management and not busying themselves with shutting down a website so that the public cannot read about news they deem embarrassing!
