VNDIRECT announces that its website has been hacked.

VNDIRECT Securities Joint Stock Company (VND) officially announces the online trading system outage on March 25, 2024.

Specifically, at 10:00 AM on Sunday, March 24, 2024, VNDIRECT's entire system was attacked by an international organization, resulting in the temporary inaccessibility of VNDIRECT's entire trading platform. VNDIRECT's technology team made every effort to restore service, but due to the massive data infrastructure, it will take additional time to reconnect.

"Currently, many groups are taking advantage of this situation to spread unfavorable rumors affecting the market and VNDirect. We would like to announce that this was merely an incidental attack and has been resolved. We are committed to doing our best to restore trading as soon as possible. All customer information, assets held in custody at the Securities Commission, and investment funds are safe and unaffected. The incident only affected trading," VNDIRECT affirmed.

The company is making every effort to restore the entire system and all transactions to avoid any disruption to customer trading today.

Currently, the company is also working with partners that are leading technology corporations in Vietnam, and has coordinated with PA05 and A05 to ensure the prevention of similar incidents to VNDIRECT, thus ensuring market safety.

Current status of VNDIRECT's website.

In April 2022, a similar incident occurred with VNDIRECT. A large number of investors were unable to access VNDirect's website and price list on both PCs and mobile devices for the unusual reason: "The domain name has expired."

In the stock market, VNDirect is currently the third largest securities company with a market share of 7.01%, behind VPS Securities Joint Stock Company and SSI Securities Joint Stock Company with market shares of 19.06% and 10.44% respectively .
