A major cyberattack has affected the London and Greater London Assembly's IT network, causing disruptions to services. The issue arose after the contract for their IT network was transferred to Transport for London (TfL) in an effort to reduce costs. According to reports, this change led to a collapse of HR systems, making it difficult to recruit new staff and resulting in unfilled roles. TfL has confirmed that they are working on restoring the affected systems and have implemented measures to maintain safety-critical processes.
