The security incident involves a ransomware attack on RUAG LLC, a subsidiary of RUAG MRO Holding Ltd. Due to the self-sufficiency of the IT systems used there, the incident is isolated and has no impact on other systems within the RUAG Group.
RUAG LLC in the US state of Virginia employs eight people who ensure communication with American institutions, suppliers, and partner companies.
The security incident can be traced back to a known, internationally active group that has also compromised numerous other companies based in Switzerland and around the world in recent months.
