Profile
The organisation operates under the aliases Riyadh Principality and Riyadh Principality magazine. Its primary activity is the publication of a magazine bearing the name Riyadh Principality. The magazine is headquartered in Saudi Arabia, specifically in the city of Riyadh. As a periodical, it serves readers interested in topics related to the Riyadh region. The organisation's branding indicates a focus on the Riyadh principality.
In January 2014, the organisation's online presence was affected when the Syrian Electronic Army breached and defaced multiple Saudi Arabian government websites, including those associated with administrative regions. The attackers replaced the content with political messages condemning the Al Saud regime under the hashtag #ActAgainstSaudiArabiaTerrorism. As part of this campaign, the magazine's website was among the platforms taken offline by authorities following the defacement. The Syrian Electronic Army announced intentions to continue its operations via social media channels despite disruptions to its own infrastructure. This incident highlights the organisation's exposure to cyber threats targeting entities perceived as linked to the Saudi government. No further details about the organisation's size, ownership, or structural relationships are provided in the available sources.
