Following the attack, the council isolated the affected servers to protect the wider network, which disrupted a number of day-to-day digital and online services. Services supporting pensions and public Freedom of Information requests are now back online, and the council said it is creating temporary solutions and workarounds for other services.

'If you are contacted by someone claiming to have your data, you should contact Police Scotland on 101.' It added: 'We are sorry that this incident will have caused real anxiety to people who have used our online services – and frustration for those unable to access those services now.'
