Truesec’s founder Marcus Murray was interviewed in Swedish national television (SVT) about ransomware attacks against Swedish companies. He shared insights about the threat actors – and why it is so difficult to get the attackers convicted.

In global comparison, Swedish companies are heavily exposed to cyber attacks due to the digital transformation. The fact that many companies have facilitated work from home during the past year has also proved to be a major safety risk – and has resulted in many more attacks compared to previous years.

”We know who the attackers are”, says Marcus. These are large criminal organizations that make a lot of money from hacking and demanding ransom.
