Overview
- Dresden's municipal website is now partially accessible through certain browsers, including Chrome, following a large-scale DDoS attack.
- The attack, generating over one million connections per quarter hour, is the most extensive and complex the city has faced to date.
- City officials confirmed no breaches of internal IT systems, with municipal data remaining secure and no damages or costs anticipated.
- The ongoing investigation has traced the perpetrators to Russia, though authorities believe this attack is unrelated to a similar one over the weekend.
- Residents are advised to use federal portals or hotline 115 for services as local systems remain under strain during recovery efforts.
