Greek food agency website defaced in cyberattack, taken offline

The website of Greece’s Unified Food Control Agency (EFET) was defaced in a cyberattack, displaying a skull image and the message 'Hacked by Trenggalek Cetar' instead of normal content. The incident occurred on Friday, with officials confirming it was a web defacement attack where intruders accessed the server and altered the homepage. Services are currently being restored as security teams work to strengthen protections and investigate the breach. Opposition party SYRIZA has criticized the incident, calling it a warning about public-sector cybersecurity and urging the government to provide more transparency regarding the attack's scope and existing safeguards.

Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 90): The article accurately reports the cyberattack on EFET's website, including details like the defacement message and the response from officials. It mentions SYRIZA's reaction but does so neutrally without taking sides.
