Comparison of ransomware attack on Swiss online consumer outlets

New Delhi. In Zurich, Swiss online consumer outlet Compare has been hit by a ransomware attack. Comparison has also filed a criminal complaint in this regard on Wednesday. In his complaint, he said that some of his information technology systems have been blocked due to this attack. The outlet also says that as far as we know, most databases were not affected by the incident. He says that unfortunately, an earlier detailed analysis suggests that criminals had access to some customer-relevant data from sister company Credaris, whose systems partially operate in the same server environment. It is known that Credaris is a financial brokerage company and its website gives consumers the option to compare prices for goods and services. The site was working normally again, but access via e-mail and customer hotlines may still be limited as it works with cybersecurity experts on a full recovery.

It did not comment on whether the incident was linked to a ransomware attack centered on Florida information technology firm Kasya, which scoured data from hundreds of small businesses around the world. Russia-linked cybercrime syndicate Reville took credit for the breach. A spokesman said he did not pay a ransom to gain functionality.
