Norfund

The world’s largest wealth fund, Norfund, which manages an estimated $1 trillion of assets created off the back of Norway’s vast oil reserves earning plenty of money on the markets. became the victim of a major cyberattack.

It had made the fund’s reserves a little lighter.

The fund calls it an advance data breach, which has lost it $10 million of its cash reserves, equivalent to 100 million Norwegian kroner.

The defrauders manipulated and falsified information exchange between Norfund and the borrowing institution over time in a way that was realistic in structure, content, and use of language.

In addition to emails, documents and payment details were also falsified.
