Kremlin's New Web Site Stands Up to Hacker Threats

Reuters, 6/21/02
<a href="http://www.reuters.com/news_article.jhtml?type=internetnews&StoryID=1117949">http://www.reuters.com/news_article.jhtml?type=internetnews&StoryID=1117949>

Almost 100 hackers have tried to break into Russian President Vladimir
Putin's new Internet Web site in the first 24 hours of its existence but
none has yet succeeded, the Kremlin said on Friday. 
And after three months of checks by the Federal Agency for Government
Communications and Information, the presidential administration is
certain the www.president.kremlin.ru site, unveiled Thursday, is almost
hacker-proof. 
"Some 500,000 people have visited the site and there have so far been 96
attacks by hackers, but none of them has succeeded," a Kremlin spokesman
said. 
Hackers try to break into Web sites for a variety of reasons including
defacing content and cracking confidential financial information, but
the Kremlin did not know what motivated those who tried to penetrate the
presidential site. 
"It could be anyone, in any country," the spokesman said. 
AYAXI, the Moscow-based company which won a tender to build the site
after a contest last June, said the site took almost ten months to
construct. 
The page contains copies of Putin's speeches, new laws and tidbits of
presidential news, but visitors can also visit an intimate photoalbum
that includes shots of the president walking his dogs and the Putin
family's holiday snaps. 
"Put in: Now anyone can penetrate the president's house," the mass
circulation daily Moskovsky Komsomolets said on Friday.
