Gandaki Province Government Subdomain Displays Millions of Unrelated Articles, Adult and Betting Ads in Suspected Hack

Kathmandu. A subdomain under the official website of the Gandaki Province Policy and Planning Commission has been found hosting unauthorized content resembling a foreign news portal, raising concerns over a possible security breach of government web infrastructure.

The subdomain, profile.ppc.gandaki.gov.np , appears to have been compromised and is now displaying large volumes of unrelated English-language articles instead of official government information. Government websites and subdomains are typically used to publish notices, press releases and information related to public services and institutional activities.
