Three months ago, in October last year, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which received unauthorized access to a system containing nuclear-related information, is still investigating, and the full extent of the damage is still unknown. ..
Since the system is shut off, some remote work operations are also hindered, and the Regulatory Commission is rushing to clarify the situation.
On October 26, last year, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission received unauthorized access to the system from the outside and found evidence of intrusion on some servers.
Since the server contains data such as nuclear accounting and human resources, and there is a risk that some of this information may be leaked, the Regulatory Commission shuts down the system and carefully checks the leaked information. However, even after three months, the full extent of the damage is still unknown.
In addition, since we continue to block e-mails from the outside and the Internet, there are some obstacles to the implementation of remote work, so as far as e-mails between staff members are concerned, working from home is the same as at work. It means that we are taking measures to minimize the impact, such as making it possible to send and receive.
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission says, "It takes time to confirm because of the huge amount of data. We will hurry to investigate the cause of unauthorized access and prevent recurrence."
