The official website of the State Council of Educational Research and 
Training (SCERT), Haryana, was allegedly hacked and a message posted on it 
saying it was done by terrorist organisation ISIS.

SCERT director Sneh Lata told The Hindu that the department got to know 
about the hacking on Sunday afternoon. “We got to know about the hacking 
when ISIS flag was noticed with ‘Hacked by Islamic State (ISIS), We Are 
Everywhere :)’ written on website’s homepage,” said Ms. Lata.

But as soon as the matter came to notice, the message was removed and the 
website is now running properly.

Ms. Sneh Lata further said that the matter was reported to the police and 
a formal complaint was lodged with the Cyber Cell in this connection.
