The Register
Software AG has seemingly been hit by ransomware, with the German IT giant itself telling the Euro nation’s stock market it had been “affected by a malware attack.”
In a notification to the German stock market published earlier this week, Software AG said: “The IT infrastructure of Software AG is affected by a malware attack since the evening of 3 October 2020.”
News of the “malware attack” has been slow to filter into the Anglosphere, though the German Press Agency newswire published a brief note that was syndicated on obscure investment websites yesterday evening. That report states “data from Software AG servers and employees’ notebooks were downloaded.”
