The Upper Austrian Workers' Chamber (AK) has been hit by a hacker attack since 5 AM on Monday, causing a standstill in its computer systems. The attack resulted in the paralysis of half of the chamber's operations, with some web services and hotlines being partially or completely unavailable. External IT experts have been called in to investigate and resolve the issue, which is expected to continue into Tuesday. The chamber's director, Andrea Heimberger, confirmed the attack and stated that they are working to fix the malfunction. The police are involved in the case, and the digital infrastructure will remain offline for security reasons throughout the week.
