MANILA -- Malacanang on Monday ordered strengthening security of all government websites following the hacking incident of Philippine Information Agency (PIA) and Bulacan government websites Sunday.

Presidential spokesperson Edwin Lacierda said Communications Operations head Sonny Coloma is on his toes in securing that government website especially the official websites of the President are secured from hacking.

“We make sure that all our websites are secured,” Lacierda told reporters.

Aside from the PIA, other two official websites of the President are www.president.gov.ph and www.gov.ph.

Until now, there are no findings yet on the nationalities of the hackers.

But Lacierda said it is not relevant whatever the nationalities instead government should focus on preventing such incident to happen.

Both PIA and Bulacan government websites are now restored. (Jill Beltran/Sunnex)
