Nuremberg City Website Down Due to DDoS

The German city of Nuremberg’s website went down on the morning of April 25, 2025, following a suspected cyberattack. The city confirmed that the attack came from external sources, not targeting internal municipal IT systems. The cybercrime department of the police is investigating, while countermeasures were swiftly put in place. The attack caused a disruption to the website and restricted access to municipal online services, particularly interactive ones like search engines and contact forms.

The attack, identified as a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, involved overwhelming the city’s website servers with excessive requests.

This led to server overloads, causing the website to become temporarily inaccessible. Despite the ongoing disruption, the city spokesperson confirmed that the issue was limited to the website, not the municipal IT infrastructure. This DDoS attack caused significant delays in accessing the city’s online services.

The website’s homepage and some services became intermittently accessible, but interactive services were particularly affected. The cybercrime unit was involved in investigating the situation, as multiple attacks continued throughout the day. The city took immediate action to restore services, and the website’s availability was being monitored. However, it was unclear when full access would be restored and when the website would be back to normal functionality.

By later in the day, the city’s website became fully accessible again, marking the resolution of the issue. The DDoS attack had been countered, and municipal services were once again available online. Although the attack caused temporary outages, the city’s website was successfully restored, ensuring residents could access all necessary online services once again.
