On 5 December 2022, Digipolis was the subject of a notable cyberattack that targeted the digital networks of the Antwerp city administration. The attack severely disrupted those networks, leading to the cancellation of all citizen appointments at municipal counters. Numerous services were affected, including police, fire departments, schools, hospitals, care facilities, museums, and archives, with some systems only partially functional. The city's website experienced temporary outages, and authorities anticipated service interruptions to persist for at least a week. In response, a criminal investigation was launched to identify the perpetrators of the attack.
