Cyberattacks on Norway

Over the past several years, Norway has repeatedly been targeted by cyberattacks. Among other systems, attackers targeted BankID and a Swedish agency responsible for labor conditions.

Last year, hackers also gained access to the control system of the Bremanger dam. As a result, water flowed out freely for four hours.

The Storting was already targeted by hackers in 2020. The new attack temporarily made it difficult to access the parliamentary website, but no longer-term consequences of the incident were reported.
