When a wave of ransom-requesting cyberattacks hit computers across the globe earlier this month, Leonardo SpA cybersecurity experts had already warned clients that a larger-than-usual strike was about to hit. Now, the company is set to roll out a new weapon against hackers.
The Rome-based defence company, which counts the UK Ministry of Defence, the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and Italy’s civil service among its 3,000 cybersecurity clients, will roll out new technology this week to prevent ransomware attacks, Andrea Biraghi, managing director of the security and information systems division, said in an interview.
