Amongst other news outlets, CIO reports on a hacker attack on the German parliament (Bundestag) that occured four weeks ago and is still ongoing:
Trojans introduced to the Bundestag network are still working and are still sending data from the internal network to an unknown destination, several anonymous parliament sources told German publication Der Spiegel.[German]
All software and hardware in the German parliamentary network might need to be replaced[1]. More than four weeks after a cyberattack, the government hasn't managed to erase spyware from the system, according to a news report.
Some MPs have concerns to call experts from the foreign intelligence service, the Bundesnachrichtendienst, for help, because the agency would gain access to the legislative process, a possible violation of the principles of Separation of Powers.
