2020年東京奧運會官網疑似被黑客攻擊
The website of the Organizing Committee of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics likely suffered a cyber-attack as the committee and public could not access the site for more than 12-hours, the committee said Thursday.
東京奧運委員會本週四表示，2020年東京奧林匹克運動會的組委會官網可能正在經受黑客襲擊,因為委員和公眾長達12個小時不能進入官網。
According to the committee, the website crashed on Wednesday evening around 8:30 p.m. local time and access could not be gained until Thursday morning at around 9 a.m.
據委員會報道稱，網站於本週三大約8:30時崩潰，使用者無法進入，直到週四早上九點系統才恢復正常。"We think we suffered a cyber-attack. It is an extremely serious issue," a senior member of the organizing committee told a press gathering Thursday, with reports also stating that multiple coordinated attempts to connect to the website that deactivated the committee's site had been recorded.
“我覺得我們正受黑客襲擊的折磨，這是一起非常嚴重的事件，”組委會高階成員週四在媒體釋出會上講。報道同時宣告，很多阻礙委員會網站的協調嘗試已經被記錄在案。
The company hosting and operating the committee's servers said they disabled the system following an unusual amount of traffic, which they deemed was a deliberate attempt to crash the servers.
主持和運營委員會網站服務器的公司說，他們通過異常的傳輸量使系統癱瘓，他們認為這一傳輸量是阻礙伺服器的蓄意嘗試。The committee and the government said they are as yet unaware of the motive for the attack and investigations are currently underway.
委員會和政府說，他們現在還不清楚攻擊的動機，調查目前正在進行。
Following a similar attack on the 2012 London Olympics website, Tokyo officials said last month they would bolster their efforts to combat cyber-attacks, by establishing a dedicated entity to train personnel to deal with digital information gathering to be launched next year.
繼2012年倫敦奧運會官網相似的襲擊後，日本官方上月稱，他們將會支援打擊黑客襲擊的努力，通過建立一個專用的實體以培訓處理資料資訊的人員，這一計劃將於明年開展。The attack has garnered a great deal of media attention due to the fact that an international conference on cyber security, backed by the World Economic Forum, will be held in Okinawa, Japan's southern most prefecture, from the weekend.
這一襲擊行為引來很多媒體的關注，因為事實上，由世界經濟論壇支援的國際網路安全會議將於本週末於日本南部大部分地區沖繩縣舉行。The conference's agenda has been based around the central theme of how to effectively guard against potential cyber attacks in the period before and during the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
會議議程基於中心主題“在2020年東京奧林匹克運動會期間如何有效地預防可能的黑客襲擊”。
