A cyberattack on Glasgow City Council, starting June 19, caused significant disruption by making various digital services unavailable. The attack arose from malicious activity detected by the council's ICT supplier CGI on servers managed by a third-party contractor's supplier. The council is working with authorities, including Police Scotland and cybersecurity agencies, to investigate. Although it's unclear if data has been exfiltrated, caution is being taken under the assumption that it may have happened. Online services related to public requests, permits, and information are among the affected services, but financial systems remain secure.
