Pro-Russia hackers attempted attack on Liguria ports

(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 3 - The website of the Genoa and Savona port system came under an attempted cyberattack on Friday, the port authority said.
    Speedy intervention by the postal police fended off the hackers.
    The attack was organized by the pro-Russian Killnet group, sources said.
    Killnet has staged several attacks on Italian public institutions in recent weeks, including on the websites of the Senate and the defence ministry.
    It had said it would launch a cyberattack on Monday that would inflict "irreparable" damage on the country, but this did not materialize.
    The Italian government has backed Western sanctions on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine and has given support to Kyiv, including military aid. (ANSA).
