Hackers allegedly tried to breach the website of the apex health research body ICMR but their attempts have been foiled, according to a government official.
The official said that hackers apparently from Hong Kong tried to attack the website of the Indian Council of Medical Research around 6,000 times in a span of 24 hours on November 30.
The attacks come close to the heels of the alleged ransomware attack that had paralysed AIIMS online services here.
