Overview
- Access to laposte.fr and La Banque Postale platforms was largely unavailable Thursday morning, with the incident starting around 03:30 according to a company page.
- A homepage message initially said La Poste’s information systems were facing a "cyberattack" before the wording was withdrawn as the company began looking into the cause.
- La Poste told AFP it could not immediately comment; a status note briefly listed webmail as available and later removed a reference to Digiposte.
- An earlier DDoS attack that began on December 22 disrupted parcel tracking for days and was claimed by pro‑Russian group NoName057(16), prompting a Paris prosecutor’s inquiry led by the DGSI and the national cyber unit.
- Officials and the company have reported no sign of data exfiltration, and there is no public confirmation tying the new disruption to the group behind December’s attack; DDoS tactics overwhelm services rather than breach data.
