The hacker group "Rhysida" has published almost six terabytes of data from Berlin's state administration on the dark web. Among the data is said to be highly sensitive information.
The scale of the leak is enormous: 1,439,893 files. So far, there has been hardly any response from Berlin's administration and political leaders.
Among the published files is a folder titled "AG CBRN-Rahmenplanung." CBRN stands for chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats. This means that highly sensitive information about potential threat scenarios may now be publicly accessible and could also be viewed by terrorists or foreign intelligence services.
Investigative journalist Lars Winkelsdorf has sounded the alarm on "X." According to him, the cyberattack is "of a magnitude that threatens the state."
