German Rheinmetall Group (defence and automotiv supplier) and its subsidiaries have been hit by a cyber attack. This is already the second attack within a few months – this time probably successful. The attack has been known since Friday, April 14, 2023, although few details have become public. A prosecutor's office has launched an investigation. Exactly how serious this attack, which could be related to the defense company's activities and also affects subsidiaries such as the automotive supplier Kolbenschmidt in Neckarsulm, is currently unknown.
