New Delhi : AIIMS server has already been hacked by cyber attackers and now they have intensified their attacks on other health and research organization websites in India.

According to a media report, the cyber attackers tried to attack the Indian council of medical research website more than 6000 times in 24 hours.

The report also mentioned that the attack was apparently made from Hong Kong-based blacklisted IP address 103.152.220.133.

The attackers were blocked in time and they could not succeed in hacking the server.

Meanwhile, no official comment has been received from ICMR yet.

In the past couple of days, the patient information system in health organizations has been among the top potential targets for hackers.

So, the NIC has asked government organizations to keep their firewall updated.
