    Whew that sounds pretty bad.

    Tl-dr:

    *Danish hosting firms CloudNordic and AzeroCloud have suffered ransomware attacks.

    During a data center migration, those servers were connected to the broader network, allowing the attackers to access critical administrative systems, all data storage silos, and all backup systems.

    Danish media reports that the attacks have impacted “several hundred Danish companies” who lost everything they stored in the cloud, including websites, email inboxes, documents, etc.*

    Too many companies have stupid people running their IT department, stupid to the bone, thinking backups (on site and off site) are not important. This hosting company is prime example.
