Massive Cyberattack at Regional Swiss Broadcasting Company
Since Tuesday afternoon, there have been irregularities or disruptions in the online, radio and television offerings of Radio and Tele Top. Not all programs can be broadcast as announced and some have to be repeated, the top media wrote on their website.
According to Gjusi Brändli, RadioTop's program director, the attack is massive and they are also being blackmailed. The technicians are currently working around the clock to get the program back on track. The radio and TV programs are running on emergency mode. It will probably take a few more days until things are back to normal, said Brändli.
"Nothing works anymore in the Radio and TeleTop system!
An encryption Trojan is currently affecting large parts of the Radio and Tele Top systems. Nevertheless, it is said that "an almost normal program" was able to be broadcast. Experts are on the trail of a solution to the problem.
