An anonymous reader quotes a report from the Associated Press: The International Criminal Court said Tuesday that it detected “anomalous activity affecting its information systems” last week and took urgent measures to respond. It didn’t elaborate on what it called a “cybersecurity incident.” Court spokesman Fadi El Abdallah said in a written statement that extra “response and security measures are now ongoing” with the assistance of authorities in the Netherlands, where the court is based. “Looking forward, the Court will be building on existing work presently underway to strengthen its cyber security framework, including accelerating its use of cloud technology,” his statement added. The court declined to go into any more detail about the incident, but said that as it “continues to analyze and mitigate the impact of this incident, priority is also being given to ensuring that the core work of the Court continues.”
