The Central Bank of Libya announced that its official website had been hacked, which has put it out of service for the time being.

The bank said, in a statement, that its official website and foreign currency reservation platform for individuals were subjected to a cyber-attack.

The bank explained in the statement that the site and platform were subjected to a Distributor Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on Monday, which affected the accessibility of the system.

He pointed out that the attack on the platform was successfully countered by preventing access to the system from any registered network address outside the Libyan state, and that the platform is operating normally after the attack stops.

The bank confirmed that work is currently underway to address the attack on the site in order to restore it and prevent similar future breaches.
