If the stormy ride the Mendoza government lacked something It was that 16 emails the State of Mendoza, that is with the domain @ mendoza.gov.ar, registered with own accounts appeared in the famous international infidels website Ashley Madison, which promotes contacts to finalize affairs.
The unprecedented is that the database was hacked Ashley Madison, and hours 3 days ago in internet escrachadas some 32 million accounts on the site, which claims 39 million members.
In the list appeared escrachada 150 accounts of government Argentine government departments and was the site of segu-info.com.ar security that gave novelty.
On this list, the domain of the provincial government, @ mendoza.gov.ar, was in the lead with 16 accounts.
But also other local government accounts appear to rise the figure to 23. This is 4 OSEP with the domain @ osep.mendoza.gov.ar, 2 provincial judiciary, with mail @ jus.mendoza.gov.ar and the other belonging to @ Mendoza-conicet .gob.ar
It is clear that transcended the domain of the e-mail accounts, but not who their owners.
Only from offices
Computer specialists who worked in the provincial government explained strictly off the record: “If these accounts are active (which is still unclear) they could only be opened from a computer in a public agency and not from outside the offices of the State “.
The reason is that each worker has his mail with mendoza.gov.ar domino “you can only access it from your workplace or computers that operate in public offices because outside these there is no access to the server “.
Esto reinforcing speculation that the accounts can be opened from state offices.
Moreover, they add that for the vast majority of workers, most Internet is blocked with a certain amount of sites enabled so if someone entered a state computer web infidels, you should have free internet in the office.
The Government’s explanations
The DIC (Information Technology and Communication) provincial responded yesterday with an official statement on the development of state-mail accounts Ashley Madison, questioning the legitimacy of those accounts.
He indicated: “Ashley Madison did not seek confirmation email, so it’s possible that some users have registered with the e-mail of another person and even many of them are false.”
What says DIC will seem much to what segu-info.com.ar also says site, which state: “Many of these emails may have been added by third parties without authorization mail owner as Ashley Madison not answer calls after receiving confirmation e-mail “
The DIC also reported.” It is not possible to know if the more than 32 million registered accounts Ashley Madison are true, because there is the possibility of involving cases phishing “
The state agency also stressed.” The official mail @ mendoza.gov.ar has nearly 14,000 accounts, including personal and institutional, is intended to traffic official information, but users can also make personal use of which it is not prohibited but constitutes an incentive for users to use the official mail and take care with the same responsibility as your mail private. “
