Bornholm heating outage and surge in Danish data inquiries

Bornholms Energi og Forsyning has announced a scheduled district heating outage on Thursday, October 15, affecting Allinge, Sandvig, Tejn, and Sandkås. The shutdown is expected to last from 09:00 to 12:00 while work continues on the expansion of a pumping station in Allinge.

In digital security news, the Danish Court Administration (Domstolsstyrelsen) reported that the Digital Land Registry system received over 17 million inquiries in just a few days. While the inquiries are considered legal, the agency noted the volume is “significantly higher than normal” and warned that such data could be used to enhance the credibility of fraud attempts. This follows a recent leak involving 8.8 million CPR numbers. The organization Ældre Sagen has expressed concern that elderly citizens are particularly vulnerable following these data breaches.
