Why Many Companies Still Underestimate Modern Cybercrime

For many companies, the word “cybercrime” still creates a surprisingly outdated image. A suspicious email. A fake invoice. A poorly written phishing message that somehow landed in the spam folder. Something annoying, but manageable. Something technical. Something distant. But that picture no longer reflects reality. The latest INTERPOL operation “Ramz,” which resulted in more than […]

Cybercrime Has Become an Industry: INTERPOL Strikes Global Scam Infrastructure

INTERPOL’s latest international crackdown, known as “Operation Ramz,” once again demonstrates how professionalized and globally organized modern cybercrime has become. During the operation, authorities across 13 countries in the Middle East and North Africa arrested more than 200 individuals and seized 53 servers used for phishing, malware distribution, and large-scale online fraud.

Trusted Infrastructure, Dangerous Intent: Why Amazon SES Is Becoming a Silent Phishing Weapon

Cybersecurity teams invest millions in secure email gateways, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and threat intelligence feeds – yet phishing emails still land directly in the inboxes of finance departments, executives, and internal decision-makers. The reason is often not a missing security stack, but the fact that attackers no longer rely on suspicious servers in obscure regions. […]

Why Smaller IT Integrators Still Matter in a Market Dominated by Global Giants

Large players like Bechtle, NTT DATA, Computacenter, SVA System Vertrieb Alexander, Cancom, and Atos operate with international delivery structures, enormous vendor influence, global purchasing power, and nearly unlimited scalability. In Switzerland, companies like Swisscom and Elca dominate major enterprise projects, while in the United Kingdom, […]
