HCS-E computer systems hacked

8 computer systems of the HCS-East on Austini 55 and Woloron 12 have been hacked it has been reported. The army's mainframe was knocked out firstly by a denial of service attack and then this propagated to a number of other systems including HCS-E Space Defence Command. Benito placed his forces on full alert in case this was the prelude to an attack but none came and now most of the computer systems are back on-line.

The origin of the attack is unknown though the DDS and Utrek have been ruled out. Suspicion may fall on the attackers of a HCS transport ship a few days ago who are thought to be a faction of the 7 Sa Sao.
