A drone attack reportedly damaged a Russian Ministry of Finance data centre near Gorodets, which is said to hold government registries including the tax database. The facility’s condition could have consequences beyond the building itself.
Why it mattersTom’s Hardware relays Data Center Dynamics’ account, which cites a Russian media outlet. DCD says the site is one of two key data-processing centres used by Russia’s Federal Tax Service and that damage could affect state information systems. That is a reported risk, not confirmation of an interruption. Data centres are becoming targets in conflicts because so much public infrastructure depends on them.
Discuss: How much disruption should be expected when a government loses access to a key data-processing site?
