Berlin Mayor confirms data breach
Berlin Mayor Kai Wiegner confirmed that the city government was targeted by a cyberattack in August, which resulted in the theft of sensitive data, including information about security measures, payroll lists, banking details, and copies of official IDs. The hacker group "Raizeda" published over a million of these data on the dark web after the city refused to pay a ransom estimated at around two million euros. This attack caused some city departments to be shut down for a week in August. The government is currently investigating the incident, which inflicted significant damage on public institutions and services provided to citizens.
