JAKARTA - Hackers disrupted an online Euro 2024 match broadcast between Poland and Austria on Friday, June 22 according to Polish state broadcaster TVP. This is the second cyberattack targeting a Polish football team during the European Cup.
According to TVP, in the initial inspections it showed that hackers launched a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack that flooded servers with a huge amount of traffic - thus preventing fans from watching the Group D match broadcast.
A similar attack also hit Poland's match online broadcast against the Netherlands on Sunday 16 June.

On Sunday, TVP revealed that the attack was carried out from the IP address inside Poland. However, they did not comment on the source of the attack on Friday.
