The website of Greece's Unified Food Control Agency (EFET) was defaced in a cyberattack that occurred on July 3, 2026. Following the breach, the website was taken offline and visitors were confronted with a message reading "HACKED BY TRENGGALEK CETAR" alongside an image of a skull. The extent of the damage, including whether any data was stolen or if information systems were compromised, remains unclear.
The incident has prompted significant reactions, with the opposition party SYRIZA criticizing the government's handling of digital security issues, suggesting that the attack undermines claims of the government's technological competence. Reports highlight that the website's defacement showcases broader concerns about cybersecurity under the administration of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
As of the latest updates, EFET has yet to provide a detailed response or insights into the nature of the attack and any subsequent measures being taken to address the security breach.
