Cyberattack Targets Liechtenstein’s Register of Corporate Beneficiaries The government of Liechtenstein confirmed a cyberattack on its register of economic beneficiaries, exposing data on approximately 31,000 individuals linked to companies and foundations in the principality. The breach occurred overnight between Wednesday and Thursday last week, with authorities detecting the intrusion on Thursday. Immediate measures were taken to secure the system, including taking it offline. Officials reported no evidence of data alteration or deletion. The compromised register, designed to combat money laundering and terrorism financing, contains details on the true owners of corporate entities, foundations, and trusteeships. Liechtenstein, a small but financially significant nation of 40,000 people between Switzerland and Austria, relies heavily on its financial sector. A crisis unit was established over the weekend to investigate the incident. No further details on the attackers or their motives have been disclosed.
