Austrias Foreign Ministry says its IT systems are the target of a serious cyberattack and authorities have taken counter measures.
The ministry said Sunday that due to the severity of nature of the attack it cannot be ruled out that this is a targeted attack by a state actor.
In a statement, the ministry noted that some other European countries have been hit by similar attacks in the past, without elaborating.
It said the attack was swiftly discovered and counter measures were immediately put in place.

To Austria?!
Why bother?
Practice..?
Austria-who cares?
There’s some possible symbolism there.
Think: Archduke Franz Ferdinand.

I can't find the live Norse Cyber attack map this is a good indication.
“Archduke Franz Ferdinand”
Bosnia =/= Austria and or Hungary.
Yes, but it was an attack on Austria/Hungary.
Muslims around the world are utterly furious with Austria and Hungary at the moment, as they are amongst the *ONLY* EU Nations, who are refusing to submit to the invasion. Hence, an attack on Austria and/or Hungary is *VERY* symbolic for Jihad.
My main suspects would be Iran and Germany.

Has anyone told Lord Pharaoh Obama, who thinks they speak Austrian?
That’s because Iran is unable to cyber attack the US and now they are doing the next best thing in their little minds, attack Europe. They better not attack their entitlement program date or the useless Western European governments and their nanny state citizens will get mad and threaten to sic the US on them.
Poland??? /sarc LOL
How about the EU HQ??? Unhappy with the new Conservative-Green coalition government???
It makes sense for the Iranians to retaliate against the Europeans and not us: (1) It is easier than attacking the U.S., and they can sill count coup, albeit nonsensically. (2) The Europeans will do nothing serious in retaliation, and they avoid the risk Trump hitting them back. (3) The Europeans will blame us, as they inevitably do.
What did the Europeans do to help Jefferson fight the Barbary pirates?
Find some elite corpse-men to alert the wun.
Jamaica?!
