00:00Let's update on the arrest of the people behind the hacking of private and government websites in banks and Facebook accounts.
00:07We are talking to NBI Deputy Spokesperson Atty. Sean Michael Dangilan. Good morning and welcome to Balitang Hali.
00:15Good morning to all the viewers.
00:19What is the update on the investigation and the cases involving the people behind the hacking incidents of some private companies and government websites?
00:28Okay, so now, the arrested people have already executed the extraduration confession.
00:34And we will investigate the people involved in this case.
00:41We will bring the evidence and this is all I can say for now.
00:46We understand that their cases are the past five years.
00:49How is the robustness of our websites now? Has it improved?
00:54Well, what I can say is that there is still a lot of improvement that needs to be done.
01:01Because there are still a lot of cases that are received regarding hacked websites and compromised accounts.
01:09So, there are still a lot of things that can be improved.
01:12What is the usual vulnerability of our websites here in the Philippines?
01:18I can't say specifically regarding that.
01:24But usually, the target is the database and the data information of the personnel and the websites.
01:37What is the NBI Cybercrime Division doing to act quickly on these hacking incidents?
01:43Are there more people reporting to you?
01:47Ever since, there are a lot of people reporting.
01:49But now, we are more proactive.
01:52We are pursuing the new order of the new director.
01:56We are becoming active.
01:58So, we are continuously doing cyber patrolling, cyber monitoring.
02:02We are really monitoring the social media activities of these suspected hackers.
02:08How dangerous is it when the personal information of these websites is obtained,
02:12especially the government websites that have private information of the Filipinos?
02:18When it comes to such cases, it is very dangerous.
02:20Because first of all, the other accounts like social media and banking accounts can be obtained.
02:29Second, it can also be used for identity theft.
02:32These identities of real people can be used for scams.
02:37And there, the real identity of these scammers will not be known.
02:43And they will be targeted.
02:45Lastly, what is your message to our countrymen so that they will not be victimized by hacking?
02:50My message to the countrymen is to be careful of the links that are being clicked.
02:56And we should not give random information,
03:00like names, birthday email, contact number.
03:04We should be careful of those.
03:05And before we release such information,
03:08we should make sure that we can trust the information we are being given.
03:15We can check it.
03:17Google is already there.
03:19We can google it first.
03:21Okay. Thank you very much, NBI Deputy Spokesperson Sean Michael Dangilan.
03:26Thank you very much.
