DDoS Attack Hits Norwegian Government Services

A large DDoS campaign has targeted Norway’s digitalization agency (Digdir), beginning early Monday and disrupting critical national services—ID-porten, Altinn, e-signing, digital mailbox, and other authentication and messaging systems—causing intermittent outages and slow logins; Digdir, with subcontractor Vivicta, mitigated the attack, reported stabilization of most services, and stated there are no indications of a security breach or personal data compromise.
