At least three councils in London are dealing with a significant cyberattack that has disrupted their operations. The councils of Kensington and Chelsea, Westminster, and Hammersmith & Fulham have shut down their networks and phone lines to respond to the attack. Their priority is to protect systems and data, restore functionality, and continue delivering essential public services like housing and waste collection. So far, the councils have not provided specific details about the nature of the attack or identified any hacking group. Investigations are ongoing, particularly regarding whether any data was stolen. Kensington's website mentioned that the cause of the cyberattack has been established, but further information is withheld as law enforcement in the U.K. is involved in the investigation. The lack of transparency raises concerns, especially for residents relying on these councils for vital services.
