Citizens will be able to check whether their personal data were accessed without authorization in the cyberattack on government systems in October 2026, according to information published by MOLDPRES on 6 November 2026. The Electronic Governance Agency (AGE) is preparing a verification feature in EVO, with a deadline set for 27 November 2026, as well as access to information through petitions.

What does this mean for you?

The feature being prepared for EVO will allow each person to find out whether their data were accessed without authorization and, if so, what information was targeted. The verification feature will be available both in the app and in the personal account on the EVO portal.

Access to this information will require authentication with an electronic signature. The information will be accessible individually in a secure environment, without a separate request to AGE. 27 November 2026 is the deadline set for making the option available, not confirmation that it is already available.

How can people who do not use EVO request information?

People who do not use EVO or prefer another method will be able to request the information directly from AGE by submitting a petition. To submit it online, through the petitions platform or by email, the petition must be signed electronically.

Requests can also be sent by post to AGE’s address or submitted in person at the agency’s headquarters. In these cases, the petition must bear the applicant’s handwritten signature.

What information will the responses to petitions contain?

AGE’s responses will reflect the validated information available at the time it is communicated to the applicant. The agency will examine petitions within the applicable legal deadlines.

The information provided may be supplemented as the verifications are completed. Therefore, a response received by petition may be followed by additional information if the verification results warrant it.
