Users can still access some services via Berlin's federal portal, unaffected by the assault. The Senate Chancellery confirmed the attack aimed at creating disruption rather than data theft, reflecting a worrying pattern of similar incidents in recent months.
The recent cyberattack targeting official Berlin websites surfaced as a DDoS attack, causing significant disruptions to city services but leaving no user data compromised.
