A virtual meeting hosted by the Meteorological Services
Department National Climate Outlook Forum had to break midway after hackers
posted pornographic material on the platform.
Environment, Climate, Tourism and Hospitality Industry
permanent secretary Mr Munesu Munodawafa apologised on behalf of the
Government, and spoke of the need to expedite the Cyber Security Bill.
The virtual meeting is discussing the 2020/21 agricultural
season forecasted weather pattern.
“We had to break the Zoom virtual meeting following the
posting of offensive adult material during the meeting by some unidentified
hackers. Government seriously needs to expedite passage of the Cyber Security
Bill. We need to create secure virtual platforms where Government business is
conducted,” said Mr Munodawafa.
The virtual meeting resumed after about 10 minutes. Herald
