NOTICE ON OUR OWN BEHALF  
Cyberattack - recovery of IT systems ongoing

On March 15, 2023, a cyberattack was detected at Helmholtz Munich. Immediately extensive defensive measures were taken. As a result, some employees have still only very limited access to their email and telephone. Maximum efforts are ongoing to restore the IT- and communication systems. To avoid jeopardizing the police investigation, no further information can be shared at the moment. We take our partners' questions in this regard very seriously: please send them to partner-helpline@helmholtz-munich.de - we will answer them as soon as possible. Additionally, we ask for your understanding and patience if we are unable to respond as quickly as usual or if processes are delayed. Thank you very much.
