🔓 Cyberleak

The National Security Operations Centre is at work after a global cybersecurity breach locked down websites. While experts advise companies to verify their systems, an IT professor has already bet a beer that a similar incident will happen within five years. Hackers have already leaked stolen documents from Novo Nordisk to the media, revealing a confidential registry of doctors. Elsewhere, the defense ministry is preparing to spend billions on new missiles, while an investigation used a camera to explore how well the country's military secrets are protected. The legal basis for a ban on pigs is being questioned after a new note appeared to resemble commissioned work rather than independent analysis. Meanwhile, it has emerged that the state pays 750,000 kroner annually to the Russian embassy, an arrangement described by some as completely wrong.
