More than 100 Azerbaijani government domains have been subjected to a cyberattack. This was reported by Azerbaijan's State Service for Special Communication and Information Security, according to which the attack was carried out by a foreign hacker group. According to the service, the targets of the attack were more than 100 domains of government agencies, and as a result, the internet resources of several state bodies were disrupted.
Details at this point are limited: it is not specified which specific agencies were affected, what data may have fallen into the attackers' hands, or when the incident occurred. It is also unknown whether the domains' operation has been restored and what steps are being taken to eliminate the consequences.
During the same period, French President Emmanuel Macron convened an emergency meeting of the security council in connection with artificial intelligence. Separate publications also touched upon the violation of the rules of the game in the economy. According to Gagik Tsarukyan's interpretation, when the wrong rule of the game enters the economy, it can affect everyone.
In addition, 240 scientists have sent an open letter to Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan regarding the 2027 budget allocated to science.
This case shows that the digital infrastructure of state agencies remains vulnerable even in countries where special cybersecurity services operate. The scale of the attack—more than 100 domains—suggests that this is not an isolated incident but an organized operation, which raises serious questions about the protection of state data.
It is noteworthy that the official statement does not mention the affected agencies, the alleged source of the attack, or the recovery timeline. Such silence may be due to the ongoing investigation, but it also limits the public's understanding of the security of their own data.
In the near future, it is worth monitoring whether details of the attack will be published and what measures will be taken to prevent similar incidents.
