The Serbian Ministry of Information and Telecommunications announced on Jan. 18 that all public administration information is protected and none of the Serbian government’s confidential documents have been exposed. Said statement is a response to increasingly frequent social media claims that the country’s data security is lacking and numerous government sites have been hacked, the Ministry emphasized.
“All information pertinent to [the Serbian state] is stored according to the highest technical and security standards in governmental data centers in Belgrade and Kragujevac.
