DB cyberattack – a bad omen for critical infrastructure?
The recent cyberattack on Deutsche Bahn’s IT systems is not an isolated incident – it is a warning sign.
What is currently sweeping across Europe is no ordinary digital storm, but a veritable DDoS tsunami: targeted overload attacks designed to paralyze the IT landscapes of critically important services.
In an interview with the FAZ, cybersecurity expert Mirko Ross talks about what is behind these attacks and why they are increasing so dramatically right now.
Such attacks do not only affect trains or websites. They affect trust – in our critical infrastructure, in stable processes, in security.
And they show how urgently we need robust protection mechanisms and forward-looking cyber risk management.
