Swiss government says it was affected by cyberattack on health foundation
SWITZERLAND, JUN 30 – The Sarcoma ransomware group published 1.3 terabytes of stolen data after failed ransom demands, affecting Swiss federal offices served by Radix, a Zurich-based nonprofit.
- The Sarcoma ransomware group breached Radix, a Swiss health foundation, on June 16, 2025, stealing and encrypting data later leaked on June 29.
- This incident came amid an increase in ransomware assaults on Swiss public institutions, with the Sarcoma group emerging in October 2024 and rapidly targeting 36 organizations within its initial month of activity.
- Radix’s customers include several Swiss federal offices, but attackers did not access state-run systems, and Radix confirmed no partner data was compromised.
- Sarcoma published 1.3 terabytes of stolen data, including contracts and communications, on its dark web leak site after ransom negotiations failed, while Radix retained intact backups.
- The breach highlights third-party risks to government operations and prompted authorities to investigate affected data, reinforcing calls for rapid containment and mandatory 24-hour incident reporting.
