Swiss Government Websites Suffer Ongoing Cyberattacks and Data Leak.
The Swiss government has disclosed that a ransomware attack on an IT supplier might have impacted its data, while warning of ongoing DDoS attacks by the pro-Russian hacktivist group NoName. The ransomware attack on Xplain, a Swiss technology provider, resulted in the theft of various documents containing private and confidential data, financial and taxation details, etc. The Play ransomware group published the entire dump after failing to extort Xplain into paying a ransom. The Swiss government is investigating the contents and validity of the leaked data, which is likely to include data belonging to the Federal Administration.
