At least one medical facility had to limit non-urgent care following significant disruptions experienced by one of Denmark’s primary mobile service providers.
TDC Net indicated that the issues were likely a result of an update implemented in the previous day and expressed no suspicion of a cyber attack being responsible for the outage.
During the downtime of the network, individuals could not reach emergency response units, and security forces in certain regions patrolled the areas to assist those in need.
As reported by Danish news outlets, delays affected trains and buses in various areas of the nation due to technical signaling problems, leading to disorder at train stations and passengers stranded on board trains.
The Centre for Cyber Security, the national authority for IT security, along with the Danish Defence Intelligence Service, could not verify whether the disruptions in the mobile network were connected to the transport signaling challenges.

On Thursday evening, TDC announced it had deployed a solution enabling users to make calls once more, although at a diminished sound quality.
The company advised customers who needed to dial emergency number 112 to first remove the SIM card from their device before placing the call.
