BC Housing was forced to shut down a section of its website this week after an attempted security breach.
The BC Housing website said that as of Jan. 27, its housing registry was not open to online applications as a “preventative measure” as it worked to address an attempted security breach. It was still not available on Wednesday.
BC Housing is a Crown corporation and reports to the Ministry of Housing.
It develops, manage and administers subsidized housing, supports affordable housing and administers rent supplements. It also supports outreach, emergency shelters and transitional housing for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
The website said it will provide an update by Monday, Feb. 3.
It said clients can call 604-433-2218 or 1-800-257-7756 (toll-free) for support.
Glacier Media has reached out to BC Housing for comment.
