( CNN ) -- Websites affiliated with the CIA , Mexico 's mining ministry and the state of Alabama were down Friday , allegedly done in by hackers , government officials and a well-known hacking group reported . A message Friday on a Twitter page and Tumblr feed affiliated with the hacking group known as Anonymous celebrated that the Central Intelligence Agency 's website had been taken down . The posting read : `` CIA TANGO DOWN : https : //www.cia.gov/ # Anonymous . '' A later one pointed to a news story indicating `` # Anonymous hackers hit CIA , U.N. , Mexico websites . '' Numerous outside reports indicated the CIA 's website was down , and CNN 's attempts from late Friday afternoon into the evening to get onto the site failed . Asked about the outage , CIA spokeswoman Jennifer Youngblood said Friday night , `` We are aware of the problems accessing our website , and are working to resolve them . '' By early Saturday morning , the website was back . Who is Anonymous ? Everyone and no one . Additionally , information was `` compromised '' in a hacking of Alabama state websites , the Alabama Department of Homeland Security said in a news release . `` We are aware of the current situation regarding individual ( s ) claiming responsibility for hacking into a state of Alabama ... public website , '' Alabama Department of Homeland Security Director Spencer Collier said in the release . Jack Doane , director of Alabama 's Information Services Division , told CNN later by e-mail that state technology experts `` are conducting a forensic analysis to determine what if any information has been compromised . '' It was not immediately clear what websites were hacked or who was responsible . A web page that included Anonymous ' signature tag line stated the hacking was in response to Alabama 's `` recent racist legislation in an attempt to punish immigrants as criminals '' -- referring to legislation , signed last June , aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration in the state . The Anonymous-related Twitter page also provided links to documents , messages and other files that it said it had taken off a website tied to Mexico 's mining ministry . `` Hello Mexican Chamber of Mines , '' a related Twitter post read . `` Want to see your emails exposed ? '' That said , another later item on the same feed added , `` We 'd remind media that if we report a hack or ddos ( distributed denial of service ) attack , it does n't necessarily mean we did it ... FYI . '' The Mexican mining ministry 's website -- which is distinct from the Chamber of Mines , or Caminex , a trade association -- appeared to be down early Friday evening .
