This is not the first time TRF-3 has been attacked by hackers. In January last year, the court Chinese Overseas America Number Data faced the same problem. At the time, the goal of the attack was to overload the system and render it unusable. Federal police were called in and worked with the court's IT team to ban the IP used by the criminals.

In July, the 7th Federal Criminal Court in São Paulo received a complaint filed by the Federal Public Ministry against persons accused of hacking the court system.

The following month, federal police arrested three hackers who attacked the website of the High Electoral Court and found 22,500 reais in cash and a gun on one of the arrested suspects. The investigation was conducted at the request of TSE Chairman, Minister Luís Roberto Barroso.



The TRF-1 website was attacked and has been taken offline as a precaution. An anonymous Twitter profile "assumed" the author of the act and posted data that could have been captured from the court system.

Also after the system was attacked; two days later, a court reported that while ministers and civil servants were unable to access their own files and emails, the backup copies were "100% complete".
