Berlin declines ransom, 1 million docs leak
Berlin admitted that sensitive data was stolen as a result of a cyberattack in August, after more than a million files were published on the dark web following a refusal to pay a ransom approaching two million euros. The stolen data included sensitive information about fire departments, payroll lists, banking details, official identities, and files related to the expansion of the German Chancellery. The hackers, from the group "Razzeda," exploited the attack to disrupt services of several city departments, affecting the delivery of some government services for a week. Officials assessed the damages and are investigating the details of the attack, confirming that they will not succumb to extortion.
