"Für das betroffene Unternehmen zahlt sich ein Kampf nicht aus"

Zahlen oder nicht zahlen? - Statement von Wieland Alge, CEO und General Manager EMEA bei der Barracuda Networks AG, zur Lösegeldzahlung durch ProtonMail an Erpresser

(PresseBox) (Innsbruck, )
Der Schweizer E-Mail-Provider ProtonMail hat Lösegeld an Cyberkriminelle gezahlt, die seinen Dienst per DDoS-Attacke (Distributed Denial of Service) lahmgelegt hatten – nach eigenen Angaben widerwillig und aufgrund von Druck indirekt betroffener Unternehmen.

Der Security-Experte weist darauf hin, dass Erpressung längst zu den gängigen Geschäftsmodellen von Cyberkriminellen gehört.
