Swiss train maker Stadler refuses Everest $12 million ransomware demand

Stadler Rail has decided not to pay a ransom of $12.3 million to cybercriminals who stole technical data from a supplier's file-sharing platform. The data was obtained by hackers in a ransomware attack. Stadler Rail's decision comes after the cybercriminals demanded the large sum in exchange for the stolen data. The company is choosing not to give in to the demands. The stolen data is described as technical in nature and was taken from a supplier's platform. The cybercriminals had been seeking payment to presumably return or delete the stolen information.
