Unambiguous mapping of attack difficult

Those who are behind current hacker attack are not fixed, a unique mapping is difficult. The general attorney determines against unknown for suspicion of intelligence agent activity.

The German security authorities have now under control attack according to federal government. According to previous reports, hackers apparently had access to central data network of federal government for one year, so-called information Verbund Berlin-Bonn (IVBB).
