Cyberattack Strikes the Grand Palais RMN; Impact Appears Limited

A purported ransomware attack struck the RMN/Grand Palais on Aug. 3–4, reportedly targeting the system that centralizes financial data for its museums and shops; RMN says it isolated affected systems, observed little operational impact, and found no evidence of data exfiltration, while French authorities opened an investigation and early media reports suggested wider effects that RMN and the Louvre later disputed.
