Poland temporarily shut down ePUAP, a nationwide platform that citizens and businesses use to submit official documents, communicate with government agencies and complete administrative procedures online, after detecting and stopping a cyberattack, officials said on Tuesday 10 November, according to The Record (11 November 2026).

The Record reports that Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski said in a social media post: "The cyberattack on the state ePUAP system was detected and stopped," and that the infrastructure of Poland's Central Information Technology Center, which maintains ePUAP, remained secure.

A Digital Affairs Ministry spokesperson, Marek Gieorgica, told Polish news agency PAP that the system was not compromised or disrupted by the attack and was disabled as a precaution, according to The Record.

Authorities have not disclosed how the attack was carried out or who was responsible, and there has been no public confirmation that attackers gained access to government systems or stole data; no restoration timeline has been given.

According to The Record, a government notice says ePUAP electronic mailboxes remain unavailable to citizens and public institutions, and the Trusted Profile digital identity system may also be temporarily affected. (source: The Record)
