Romania’s land registry hit by cyber attack, data allegedly for sale

Romania’s National Agency for Cadastre and Land Registration (ANCPI) suffered a major disruption on Tuesday, July 14, when its e-Terra cadastre and land registry app became unavailable to users. What was first declared to be a “major technical incident” has now been confirmed as a cyber attack. While the circumstances are still being investigated by the competent state institutions, ANCPI stated that the data administered through its IT systems has not been compromised as a result of this incident. “From the information we have at this time, we estimate that, most likely, the e-Terra application will not be available until the end of the current week,” the agency added in a Facebook post published on Wednesday, July 15. “We regret the situation created and assure you that our technical teams are making every effort to restore the functioning of the systems under safe conditions for all users, as soon as possible.”
