How one ransomware attack cost £45m to fix – BBC News
Ransomware cyber attacks are targeting large companies and demanding huge payments.
A Norwegian aluminium producer is recovering after hackers took 22,000 computers offline at 170 different sites around the world.
Norsk Hydro refused to cave in to the cyber criminal’s demands for money and have spent £45m trying to restore their business to full strength.
The attack comes as evidence grows that hackers are getting paid off in secret by large organisations who want an easy way out.
The BBC’s Cyber-security reporter Joe Tidy reports.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

by Allowing BBC to film this video itself is a risk. They have broadcasted everything right from asset IDs tags, Host names. it is a gold mine for hackers.

I'd want to take this opportunity to thank Belingorecoup for the assistance. It's a pleasure to work with you now that I know you're a professional in your field. You rescued my life by restoring my account, which was full of my mother's stored pictures. God bless you, and I hope that others will approach you in the future.

I honestly believed that the people who advised Belingorecoup were bots. My account issue was significant enough for them to investigate. Fortunately, they are real; I still don't understand how they were able to regain my account.
