Rhysida has demanded 30 bitcoin, valued at roughly 2 million euros ($2.3 million), after claiming responsibility for a breach of Berlin’s government IT network. The group threatened to release nearly 6 terabytes of stolen data and set a one-week countdown, according to German media. The claimed haul includes records from nearly 80,000 administrative fine proceedings, more than 46,500 contracts, critical-infrastructure information, judicial documents, emergency plans, passwords and almost 6,000 files containing login credentials. Investigators determined that data had been exfiltrated at least since Aug. 7, before the breach was detected on Aug. 14. Several ministries were temporarily disconnected from the network in mid-August. The compromised BeLa fiber-optic network links hundreds of Berlin administration offices and is operated by ITDZ Berlin. Officials previously said election infrastructure and election-related data were unaffected ahead of Berlin’s September 20 elections. An earlier account described the 30-bitcoin demand as a data auction with a value of $77,622; the newer media report valued the demand at about $2.3 million.
