UPDATE: Ransomware attack affecting Tietoevry’s services for some customers in Sweden 

Posted on January 21, 2024 by Dissent

21 January 2024
[UPDATED: 10:45 CET, January 21]

One of Tietoevry’s several datacenters in Sweden was partially subject to a ransomware attack during the night of Jan 19-20. While overall recovery has progressed, services for the customers in scope remain impacted.

The attack was limited to one part of one of our Swedish datacenters, impacting Tietoevry’s services to some of our customers in Sweden. Tietoevry immediately isolated the affected platform, and the ransomware attack has not affected other parts of the company’s infrastructure. Tietoevry has taken highest level of action to investigate, mitigate and resolve the situation. A large team of experts are working on several tracks in parallel around the clock on this. We have notified the directly affected customers and are in dialogue with them for updates on the situation.

“We sincerely apologize for the problems this malicious attack is causing for our customers and everyone that is impacted by this. We have allocated all necessary resources to address this with full attention. We are in active dialogue with our customers who are directly affected”, says Venke Bordal, Head of Market Sweden, Tietoevry Tech Services.
