The Swiss government had around 65,000 files related to it stolen by the Play ransomware gang during an attack on an IT supplier, its National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) says. A total of 1.3 million files were stolen during the incident at software biz Xplain in May 2023, meaning 5 percent of the entire trove related to the Swiss Federal Administration – a collection of seven federal agencies that alongside the Federal Council comprise the main government departments.
