Access to court websites at all levels across the country has been temporarily suspended.
The DDoS attack is believed to have taken place a few days ago following the Ministry of National Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the court stressed that it is working closely with the National Intelligence Service and the National Police Agency to respond.

At one point, court websites across the country, including the Supreme Court, were not available.
It was not possible to use the internal functions of the website normally while only saying that the site could not be connected or staying loaded for a long time.
The connection delay, which lasted for about an hour, is believed to be due to an attack attempt from the outside.
The Supreme Court's Office of Court Administration said it is responding to a "DDoS suspect attack" that intentionally paralyzes the server by congesting the amount of access.
Earlier last year, North Korean hacker group Lazarus hacked the judiciary's computer network and leaked thousands of personal information.
However, the delay was limited to court websites that provide public services such as case search.
The court administration explained that there would be no major problem with the trial work as the internal network of the court, which had the Internet blocked, was not the target of the attack.
A few days ago, the Ministry of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Public Administration and Security's website were attacked by DDoS and were disconnected, which the government believes was the work of a pro-Russian hacking group.
The National Court Administration said that several public institutions appear to have been attacked by DDoS since the 4th, and that it will work closely with the National Intelligence Service and the National Investigation Headquarters to deal with the situation.
