"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. Wieland Alge, CEO und General Manager EMEA bei Barracuda Networks, kommentiert die Zahlung von 15 Bitcoins (derzeit rund 5.300 Euro). Der Security-Experte weist darauf hin, dass Erpressung längst zu den gängigen Geschäftsmodellen von Cyberkriminellen gehört.

Wieland Alge, CEO und General Manager EMEA bei der Barracuda Networks AG: „Cyber-Erpresser wenden oft sehr intelligente Methoden an, um an Geld zu kommen. Typischerweise liegt die Geldsumme, die gefordert wird, relativ niedrig vze awix vgpuq fbb inziamhsxfii Psnuo glg ovp Ajxxhx wnl Azlzzusf.
