Hackers Cause Shutdown of Jerusalem's Digital Services

An attempt to hack into Jerusalem's municipal servers brought the city's digital services down on Friday. 

• Two Israeli teens likely to be charged with running $1.2 million cybercrime operation
• Hackers use Jerusalem Post website to attack German parliament

The city said it took down its website and other services as a preventative measure as information security experts worked to block the hackers. 

Earlier this week, hackers attempted to target a new server the city is testing with ransomware, an attack that the city said it has taken care of.
