Switzerland's Department of Defense was attacked by hackers. The Federal Council is aware of the virus of a spy officer. Switzerland's army has been the target of cyberattack. The attack was detected and stopped in early July, according to a statement by the Federal Chancellor.
How long the hackers were already on the job, you don't know. Even the Federal Chancellor did not know what amount of data had been stolen.
Federal Council wants to improve data protection: Federal adviser Simonetta Sommaruga explains what this means to consumers and companies.
During the attack, the “trosis Turla” was used. This virus has been in circulation for several years and is used mainly against government agencies, police, embassies and research facilities. Once installed, the attacker may enter the victim's records, albinfo.ch records it.
