Revista Factum suffered week-long cyber attacks for denouncing corruption by the president of El Salvador

The government of El Salvador had banned Factum Magazine from attending its press conferences and was subjecting them to a smear campaign. The alleged perpetrator of the attacks has been identified as a computer engineer acting, from the University of Oriente, El Salvador. The intense cyber attacks in October last year, cost the news site almost a weeks downtime. The magazine responded to the accusations in social media as they were not able to defend itself on its own website. A notarial document signed by the attacker released the university from all responsibility.”]
