On Friday afternoon, the ransomware group Rhysida published nearly 1.44 million files totaling 5.8 terabytes of data stolen from Berlin&#8217;s state administration on the dark web. The leak, described by Green party vice-chairman Konstantin von Notz as a &#8220;genuine data super-GAU&#8221; (worst-case scenario), represents one of the most devastating cyberattacks ever suffered by a German state government.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hackers had infiltrated Berlin&#8217;s state network (BeLa) between August 7 and 12, 2026 and exfiltrated the data undetected. They demanded a ransom of 30 Bitcoin \u2013 approximately \u20ac2 million \u2013 and set a countdown that expired at 3:35 PM on Friday. The Berlin Senate, led by Governing Mayor Kai Wegner (CDU), refused to pay. Within hours, the data dump followed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE DATA: WHAT WAS LEAKED<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scale of the breach is staggering. According to the Berlin Senate, the leaked data includes:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00b7 Personal records: Approximately 12,000 personnel data sets, including passport copies, identification documents, internal passwords for state databases, salary statements, employment contracts, performance reviews, certificates of employment, disciplinary records, and settlement agreements<br \/>\u00b7 Security-critical documents: CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear) threat assessments under a folder titled &#8220;AG CBRN-Rahmenplanung&#8221;<br \/>\u00b7 Critical infrastructure plans: Analyses of Berlin&#8217;s water and power grids, heating plants, tank depots, emergency power systems, and substations \u2013 essentially a blueprint of the capital&#8217;s vulnerabilities<br \/>\u00b7 Police and justice files: Contact lists of the State Criminal Police Office (LKA), building plans of police stations, disaster response duty rosters, and plans for Tegel Prison<br \/>\u00b7 Defense-related documents: Files concerning prisons, waterworks, defense companies, the Bundeswehr, and Berlin&#8217;s interior administration<br \/>\u00b7 &#8220;End of the world&#8221; communication channels: Secret federal government communication plans for a state of defense<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investigative journalist Lars Winkelsdorf warned on X that this cyberattack is &#8220;of a magnitude that threatens the state&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE FALLOUT: POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The leak comes just two weeks before Berlin&#8217;s state election on September 20. The opposition is in full attack mode:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00b7 Green party top candidate Werner Graf: &#8220;The week passed without any discernible precautions. This is a scandal.&#8221; He demanded the convening of a crisis task force<br \/>\u00b7 Left party top candidate Elif Eralp called for a &#8220;major disaster declaration&#8221; and spoke of &#8220;blatant government failure&#8221;<br \/>\u00b7 FDP top candidate Christoph Meyer: &#8220;From the inadequate security architecture to the handling of sensitive data to the response to the identified security gap and data outflow: at every level, the response was clearly inadequate.&#8221;<br \/>\u00b7 AfD top candidate Kristin Brinker demanded swift and comprehensive clarification<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Governing Mayor Kai Wegner (CDU), who initially stated that no sensitive data had been exfiltrated, was forced to correct himself. &#8220;The state of knowledge today is a different one,&#8221; he told Bild. Wegner called the attack a &#8220;very serious crime against the state of Berlin&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE EXPERTS: &#8220;GROSS NEGLIGENCE&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IT security expert Manuel Atug, founder of the AG Kritis working group on critical infrastructure, delivered a devastating assessment:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The state of Berlin has acted with gross negligence and deliberately failed to comply with classified information protection requirements. I am genuinely shocked and speechless.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Atug revealed that he had been called as an expert witness before Berlin&#8217;s interior committee twice \u2013 in 2023 and 2025 \u2013 and had warned of &#8220;egregious security gaps&#8221;. &#8220;You have dismal cybersecurity. You urgently need to address your security processes,&#8221; he told officials at the time. &#8220;I warned that neglecting security would have serious consequences. That is exactly what has now happened.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE BSI WARNING<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) has expressed alarm over the potential risks. The agency warned that the leak could create &#8220;various risks for those affected and ultimately for society&#8221;. Particular concern surrounds the timing \u2013 just weeks before the Berlin state election \u2013 with the BSI highlighting an increased risk of &#8220;hack and leak&#8221; operations where stolen documents are released at a politically opportune moment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BSI also warned that data on critical infrastructure, companies, and organizations may have been stolen. According to Deutschlandfunk, at least part of the stolen data is security-relevant, concerning objects that would require special protection in the event of a defense emergency \u2013 including hospitals, fuel depots, emergency power systems, and defense companies. However, the BSI does not believe the attack was politically motivated, but rather &#8220;exclusively financially&#8221; motivated.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE RESPONSE: CRISIS UNIT ESTABLISHED<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Saturday, the Berlin Senate established a central steering unit in the Senate Chancellery under the leadership of Chief Digital Officer Florian Hauer. The unit includes the LKA Berlin, the state data protection authority, the State Commissioner for Information Security, and other security authorities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Senate stated: &#8220;The security of Berliners, of employees in the state of Berlin, and of the state&#8217;s partners has the highest priority. The state of Berlin is providing transparent and timely information about the results of the investigations.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the Senate also cautioned that not every investigative result would be published immediately for investigative tactical reasons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">THE BOTTOM LINE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Berlin has suffered a catastrophic failure of cybersecurity with consequences that will reverberate for years:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>1.44 million files, 5.8 terabytes of state secrets are now publicly accessible on the dark web \u2013 personal records, critical infrastructure blueprints, police files, CBRN threat assessments, and classified defense documents<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>The Senate&#8217;s refusal to pay the \u20ac2 million ransom was principled but came at a devastating cost \u2013 the complete exposure of Berlin&#8217;s administrative and security apparatus<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Experts had warned for years about Berlin&#8217;s cybersecurity failures \u2013 warnings that were ignored<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>The timing \u2013 two weeks before a state election \u2013 raises the specter of politically motivated &#8220;hack and leak&#8221; operations<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>The BSI warns that the leak poses risks not just to individuals but to society as a whole<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The question is no longer whether Berlin&#8217;s cybersecurity was adequate \u2013 it clearly was not. The question is what other German states and federal institutions remain equally vulnerable, and whether this &#8220;genuine data super-GAU&#8221; will finally force the fundamental reforms that experts have been demanding for years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a9 BERNDPULCH.ORG \u2013 ABOVE TOP SECRET ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS \u2013 THE ONLY MEDIA WITH LICENSE TO SPY<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udce2 SHARE THIS INTELLIGENCE<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udcfa YouTube: youtube.com\/@bernd_pulch<br \/>\ud83d\udc26 X (Twitter): x.com\/berndsocial1<br \/>\ud83d\udce2 Telegram: t.me\/ABOVETOPSECRETXXL<br \/>\ud83d\udd13 Unlock the Full Truth: berndpulch.org\/join<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Share this intelligence \u2013 the truth must come to light.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;<br \/><br \/>BERNDPULCH.ORG \u2013 EXKLUSIVE INTELLIGENZ ZUR NEUEN CYBER-ORDNUNG<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>\ud83d\udcfa YouTube: youtube.com\/@bernd_pulch | \ud83d\udc26 X (Twitter): x.com\/berndsocial1 | \ud83d\udce2 Telegram: t.me\/ABOVETOPSECRETXXL | \ud83d\udd13 Die ganze Wahrheit: berndpulch.org\/join<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>\ud83d\udce1 ABOVETOPSECRETXXL \u2013 BREAKING INTELLIGENCE<br \/><br \/>DATUM: 6.

Am Freitagnachmittag ver\u00f6ffentlichte die Erpresserbande Rhysida nahezu 1,44 Millionen Dateien mit insgesamt 5,8 Terabyte Daten, die aus der Berliner Landesverwaltung gestohlen wurden, im Darknet. Der Leak, den Gr\u00fcnen-Vizechef Konstantin von Notz als &#8220;echten Daten-Super-GAU&#8221; bezeichnete, stellt einen der verheerendsten Cyberangriffe dar, den je eine deutsche Landesregierung erlitten hat.<br \/><br \/>Die Hacker waren zwischen dem 7. und 12. August 2026 in das Berliner Landesnetz (BeLa) eingedrungen und hatten die Daten unentdeckt exfiltriert. Sie forderten ein L\u00f6segeld von 30 Bitcoin \u2013 etwa 2 Millionen Euro \u2013 und setzten einen Countdown, der am Freitag um 15:35 Uhr ablief. Der Berliner Senat unter der F\u00fchrung von Regierendem B\u00fcrgermeister Kai Wegner (CDU) weigerte sich zu zahlen. Wenige Stunden sp\u00e4ter folgte die Datenver\u00f6ffentlichung.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>DIE DATEN: WAS OFFENGELEGT WURDE<br \/><br \/>Das Ausma\u00df des Datenlecks ist atemberaubend.

Das ist ein Skandal.&#8221; Er forderte die Einberufung eines Krisenstabs<br \/>\u00b7 Linken-Spitzenkandidatin Elif Eralp forderte eine &#8220;gro\u00dfe Katastrophenerkl\u00e4rung&#8221; und sprach von &#8220;eklatantem Regierungsversagen&#8221;<br \/>\u00b7 FDP-Spitzenkandidat Christoph Meyer: &#8220;Von der unzureichenden Sicherheitsarchitektur \u00fcber den Umgang mit sensiblen Daten bis hin zur Reaktion auf die festgestellte Sicherheitsl\u00fccke und den Datenabfluss: Auf allen Ebenen war die Reaktion eindeutig unzureichend.&#8221;<br \/>\u00b7 AfD-Spitzenkandidatin Kristin Brinker forderte eine schnelle und umfassende Aufkl\u00e4rung<br \/><br \/>Regierender B\u00fcrgermeister Kai Wegner (CDU), der zun\u00e4chst erkl\u00e4rte, dass keine sensiblen Daten exfiltriert worden seien, musste sich korrigieren. &#8220;Der Erkenntnisstand heute ist ein anderer,&#8221; sagte er der Bild. Wegner nannte den Angriff eine &#8220;sehr schwere Straftat gegen das Land Berlin&#8221;.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>DIE EXPERTEN: &#8220;GROBE FAHRL\u00c4SSIGKEIT&#8221;<br \/><br \/>IT-Sicherheitsexperte Manuel Atug, Gr\u00fcnder der AG Kritis-Arbeitsgruppe f\u00fcr Kritische Infrastruktur, lieferte eine vernichtende Bewertung:<br \/><br \/>&#8220;Das Land Berlin hat grob fahrl\u00e4ssig gehandelt und bewusst die Geheimschutzauflagen missachtet.

Sie m\u00fcssen dringend Ihre Sicherheitsprozesse in den Griff bekommen,&#8221; sagte er den Beamten damals. &#8220;Ich habe gewarnt, dass die Vernachl\u00e4ssigung von Sicherheit schwerwiegende Folgen haben wird. Genau das ist jetzt eingetreten.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>DIE BSI-WARNUNG<br \/><br \/>Das Bundesamt f\u00fcr Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI) hat Alarm geschlagen \u00fcber die potenziellen Risiken. Die Beh\u00f6rde warnte, dass der Leak &#8220;verschiedene Risiken f\u00fcr die Betroffenen und letztlich f\u00fcr die Gesellschaft&#8221; schaffen k\u00f6nnte. Besondere Besorgnis gilt dem Zeitpunkt \u2013 nur wenige Wochen vor der Berliner Landtagswahl \u2013 wobei das BSI ein erh\u00f6htes Risiko von &#8220;Hack-and-Leak&#8221;-Operationen betonte, bei denen gestohlene Dokumente zu einem politisch g\u00fcnstigen Zeitpunkt ver\u00f6ffentlicht werden.<br \/><br \/>Das BSI warnte auch davor, dass Daten zu Kritischer Infrastruktur, Unternehmen und Organisationen gestohlen worden sein k\u00f6nnten.

Das BSI geht jedoch nicht von einer politischen Motivation des Angriffs aus, sondern von einer &#8220;ausschlie\u00dflich finanziellen&#8221; Motivation.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>DIE REAKTION: KRISENSTAB EINGERICHTET<br \/><br \/>Am Samstag richtete der Berliner Senat eine zentrale Steuerungseinheit in der Senatskanzlei unter der Leitung von Digitalisierungschef Florian Hauer ein. Die Einheit umfasst das LKA Berlin, die Landesdatenschutzbeauftragte, den Landesbeauftragten f\u00fcr Informationssicherheit und weitere Sicherheitsbeh\u00f6rden.<br \/><br \/>Der Senat erkl\u00e4rte: &#8220;Die Sicherheit der Berlinerinnen und Berliner, der Besch\u00e4ftigten des Landes Berlin und der Partner des Landes hat h\u00f6chste Priorit\u00e4t.

Die Weigerung des Senats, das 2-Millionen-Euro-L\u00f6segeld zu zahlen, war prinzipientreu, aber hatte einen verheerenden Preis \u2013 die vollst\u00e4ndige Offenlegung des Berliner Verwaltungs- und Sicherheitsapparats<br \/>3. Experten hatten jahrelang gewarnt \u2013 vor Berlins Cybersicherheitsversagen \u2013 Warnungen, die ignoriert wurden<br \/>4.
