Some Canberrans have reported "suspicious messages" after a cybersecurity breach of a booking portal the government uses for campgrounds and other attractions.
The platform, Bookeasy, says that so far it believes only personal details and no credit card details have been compromised.
The ACT government has temporarily disabled the platform, but people can still book sites directly.
The ACT government is stressing vigilance after a cybersecurity breach of a booking platform for campgrounds in territory parks and reserves.
The government said another of its departments, VisitCanberra, used for accommodation and attraction bookings in the ACT, had also been compromised.
The third-party platform, Bookeasy, processes bookings and permits for the National Parks booking system in the ACT and other Australian states, storing personal data from emails to addresses and phone numbers.
It comes as systems in Queensland, Victoria and South Australia were hacked this week .
