Programme des Domaines Agricoles Communautaires

Programme des Domaines Agricoles Communautaires, also known by its acronym PRODAC, is an organisation headquartered in Senegal. The entity operates under both its full French name and the abbreviation PRODAC in public communications. Its headquarters location situates it within the West African region. In September 2023, PRODAC became the target of a cyberattack that focused on its official Facebook page. During the attack, unidentified actors removed the page’s appointed administrators. The attackers also modified the page’s profile picture and cover image without authorisation.

Following the alterations, the perpetrators posted pornographic material onto the compromised Facebook page. As a direct consequence, PRODAC lost complete access to its Facebook page and could not administer the account. The organisation subsequently filed a formal complaint alleging fraudulent access to a computer system. Senegalese law‑enforcement authorities opened an investigation to identify those responsible for the incident. The incident was reported by regional news outlets, underscoring the risks faced by organisations’ social‑media presences. Beyond the details of this cybersecurity event and its basic organisational identifiers, no further public information about PRODAC’s mandate, size, or activities is provided in the available sources.
