The Philippines on Sunday ordered all government offices to tighten Internet security after its main information website was brought down by hackers. "We are alerting all government agencies to review and improve security of their websites in view of the hacking of the website this afternoon," presidential spokesman Herminio Coloma said."We are adopting best practices to lessen the vulnerability of our websites to hacking and other cyber crimes," Coloma said.The information agency website was inaccessible for several hours in the afternoon with the words "Hacked by 7z1" appearing if searched on Google. Coloma did not say whether the hacker attack was related to widespread public anger in Hong Kong over police bungling of a hostage crisis that left eight tourists dead on Monday.
