Hackers have hit hard in Bistrita.
Hackers have been extremely thorough.
They cloned each e-mail to company heads.
The company announced in a press release that it was the target of a cyber attack.
As a result, the companys funds were transferred into foreign accounts.
The damage amount is nearly 40 million.
Criminal activities have not affected the IT infrastructure or data security stated the company.
Prosecutors started an investigation and have already made searches at Leoni headquarters in Bistrita.
IT specialists think it is likely that the route taken by the hackers can be recovered by the investigators.
Harder, if covered their tracks well.
Rather it would go on the money trail.
A variant of securing email is the digital signature: a unique encryption which is almost impossible to copy.
We have a minimum education to guard us, to protect us or even to be suspicious.
However, Leoni AG is the second company to fall for such a classic email scam this year.
