German firm files for insolvency, blames cybercrims who shut down production for 6 weeks
In a notice to customers and suppliers, the organization said it had exhausted every available option before seeking insolvency protection. Managing director Johannes Zenglein described the filing as "one of the most difficult steps in our company's 37-year history." "The cyberattack of March 29, 2026, however, impacted our company to an extent that we could not fully compensate for despite our best efforts," Zenglein wrote. "The consequences resulted in a production outage of nearly six weeks and significant financial strain. These effects ultimately impacted our financial situation so severely that filing for insolvency became necessary."
Wow.
ZEGO did not disclose what kind of attack it suffered, whether ransomware was involved, who was behind it, or whether customer or employee data was compromised.
Wait a minute... ಠಿ_ಠ

On the other hand, if six weeks makes you go under, maybe next time you should think about actually securing your network or having a little bit more solvency.
Or they were already having problems and this is a good way to placate shareholders. I'm betting it's that.

in reply to SocialistVibes01 • • •BS! Germany chose to let US bomb their CHEAP Russian energy supplies, and that has de-industrialized all of EU and especially Germany.
It's not kosher to write that they - EU - shot themselves in the foot, and are now paying the price - while lying heavily about it.
The economic troubles of the EU and the whole west have just begun. Everywhere we'll see excuses like this, blaming everything else besides the energy and money lost on War. The goal is that ordinary people don't connect the Epstein wars (russia,Iran,China + 100 others) to the western poverty trend. The downfall will continue for a long while, and they'll blame everyone and everything but them selves. The West and in particular EU, is SO fucked, and the EU psychos with the un-elected 'von der leyen' in front, made it so, all by them-selves..
Too bad that all Westerners will blame other nations, the 'wevil' ones, instead of their own local Epstein class lying to them, manipulating them - again and again..
