Important information about the web services of Stadtfabrikanten e.V.

Dear members and guests of Stadtfabrikanten e.V. and FabLab Chemnitz,
On 05.11.2023 there was a ransomware attack on our in-house server infrastructure.
As a result, one of our servers was completely cryptographically encrypted and we received an extortionate request for payment. In addition, data from the encrypted server was siphoned off. We are currently trying to find out to what extent personal data of our members has been stolen and will inform those affected as soon as possible.
Charges will be filed against persons unknown.
