“There were no incidents related to the leak of personal data of users of the unified portal of public services and a unified system of identification and authentication,” the TASS press service reports.

It is noted that user data is reliably protected, all subsystems of the portal work as usual.

It is clarified that media reports could be related to the work of the regional mobile application "State Services of Ugra", working independently from the portal of public services.

“The application is hosted on the technical infrastructure provided by Rostelecom,” Rostelecom explained.

Earlier it was reported that the Ministry of Communications of Russia is conducting an audit due to media reports about the possible leak of data from 28 thousand users from the public services portal.

In November, FBA Economics Today reported that the State Services portal plans to update the format of its mobile application in 2020.
