Payroll services for civil servants have not been affected - AG

Minister for Communications and Attorney General, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum says payroll services for civil servants have not been affected after a cyber incident detected on the government network and he also confirms that more government online services are back online today.

Sayed-Khaiyum says the public can access the digitalFIJI platform, online birth registration, printing of birth certificates, re-printing of birth certificates, digital registration of companies, e-profile registration, the myFeedback platform, and the vaccine registry system.

He also says arrangements have been made to ensure timely government payments to vendors.

Sayed-Khaiyum says following a whole-of-government cybersecurity briefing this morning, Government ministries and entities are preparing to restore the remainder of government e-services in line with Fiji's internationally-recognised security protocols.

The Attorney General says these protocols can be time-intensive, but they are necessary to ensure network integrity.
