Tietoevry Cyberattack Exposes Crisis Management Flaws

Published: 2024-02-09

A significant cyberattack targeting the private IT company Tietoevry has impacted various government agencies, regions, and large corporations.

An anonymous employee has raised concerns about the severity of the situation, indicating that the extent of the damage is vast and that there is no clear timeline for resolution.

Criticism has been directed at the company for its lack of a crisis management plan and clear directives for response.

As departments prioritize recovery efforts, the employee suggests it may take months to restore systems fully, contradicting the company's communication chief, who claims significant progress is being made.

While Tietoevry asserts that regular internal updates are provided to those involved in the crisis management process, the testimony from the inside points to a challenging road ahead for the company and its clients.
