La Laguna extends all administrative deadlines because of the cyberattack and notifies the CCN

San Cristóbal de La Laguna City Council, in Tenerife, has agreed a general extension of all ongoing administrative deadlines until the cyberattack it is suffering is resolved, so that no one is harmed by the delays, according to a municipal statement reported by Radio Televisión Canaria (RTVC) and Atlántico Hoy.

The council has reported the incident to the National Cryptologic Centre, which reports to the National Intelligence Centre (CNI), according to both outlets. It says it has activated all its response protocols and that specialist teams are working to contain and eliminate the attack and restore services.

According to Atlántico Hoy, the municipal website, the e-government portal, the case-file management system and several tax and accounting management applications are affected. In-person service continues, although the City Council acknowledges limitations in some services, according to RTVC.

No information has been given on the type of attack, exactly when it began, whether taxpayers' data has been compromised or when services will be restored. The City Council says it will continue to provide updates.
