The short response of PAP and journalists from different editorial places of work deserves reward (it appears that evidently no media reprinted it).

The query that is still is how this message was injected into PAP’s techniques? It was in all probability not a hack into the PAP infrastructure, as a result of then its techniques would nonetheless be mendacity there, however they’re working. This implies that the attackers in all probability intercepted the entry information of one of many PAP journalists (phishing / malware on the machine) and inserted the message into the system utilizing the “normal” methodology.
