Cross-Border Cybersecurity Attack Simulation in Europe Next Week
A major European, cross-border cybersecurity attack will be simulated on the financial sector next month, according to a news report.
The exercise, organized by the French central bank under France’s presidency of the Group of Seven nations (G7), will be based on the scenario of a technical component widely used in the financial sector becoming infected with malware. Institutions such as the European Central Bank and the Bank of England have already conducted such tests, but the June exercise will be the first across borders at the G7 level.
