A destructive cyberattack hit the email provider VFEmail, a hacker wiped its servers in the United States, including backup systems. The company caught the hacker while he was formatting a backup server hosted in the Netherlands. 18 years worth of customer emails were lost. The incident could suggest a wrong cybersecurity posture of the company that that was not able to prevent the intrusion and protect the backups. Backups of servers located in Netherlands were not affected and were used to restore the service. The hacker appears to have been attacking out of Bulgaria.”]
