The website of the Jamaica Information Service ( JIS ) has been hacked , but the management is seeking to assure that critical information has not been compromised . A visit to the website revealed the following message : " hacked by Holako " . However , the perpetrator of the attack was not immediately clear . On a subsequent visit , another message appeared saying the site was " down for maintenance " . The JIS is the Government of Jamaica 's main media and information arm . Contacted last this evening , the JIS CEO , Donna - Marie Rowe , said no sensitive information had been lost . " The aggressor 's attempts at breaching our system did not result in access to sensitive data but was constrained to ' surface defacement ' , " she said in an email . " Our security team is undertaking recovery and reinforcement procedures as we speak and the JIS website will resume normal function in short order . " This development comes weeks after the government warned its employees of a virus being sent via an email . ;
