Background discussion with Mirko Ross on the hacker attack
against the city of Schorndorf
When things get rough in cyberspace, we need voices that provide context rather than just raising the alarm.
That’s exactly what asvin CEO Mirko Ross did in an ARD radio interview about the attack on the Forscherfabrik Schorndorf.
Beyond the vulnerability in the online ticketing system, he makes it clear why such incidents are not isolated cases, but rather a symptom of a broader threat landscape – from automated scans for WordPress vulnerabilities to professional criminal structures.
In the report on ARD/Tagesschau24, you will find a compilation of the interview as well as additional commentary from the editorial team:
