Cyber ​​attack hits parliament Britain

The British parliament has been hit by a cyber attack.

The news about the digital attack was reported by the BBC via a member of the Hogerhuis, the House of Lords. Chris Rennard wrote that urgent messages had to be sent to him by text message because the mail system could not be used because of a cyber attack.

British parliamentarians are reportedly informed Friday night about cyber attacks. They can not use their official mail accounts for the time being. According to a spokesman of the House of Commons, this is the result of the countermeasures taken to protect the computer network.
