Judging by the state of government websites in this country, I can only assume our cybersecurity is the equivalent of one of those fake security cameras.

Big Ouf. Looks like a zero-day vulnerability. It's a tough trade deciding between availability and hardened security.

Hopefully the security department will re-evaluate future tools being available on the internet.
