    The Tech. University Eindhoven (NL) is since saturday evening under cyberattack.
    They closed all online connections at least until Tuesday.
    They have not given much info, so it is not yet clear whether it is a ransomeware attack.

    In Dutch at public broadcaster NOS:
    https://nos.nl/artikel/2551479-morgen-geen-onderwijs-op-tu-eindhoven-vanwege-cyberaanval

    It reminds of the ransomeware attack on the Maastricht University some 5 years ago.
    We posted about that at that time.

    Will this also affect ASML (or other companies in the chip industry) with close relations to the TU/E? Time will tell.
