Switzerland in the crosshairs of foreign intelligence services
The 2025 Situation Report of the Federal Intelligence Service (FIS) speaks a clear language: the threat of espionage activities in Switzerland has reached a new level. Switzerland has remained an attractive operational area for foreign intelligence services for decades. However, according to the latest report, the extent of these activities is not only still high – it is increasing significantly. The FIS explicitly confirms that the activities of the prohibited intelligence service have reached a new level. Companies with a high level of innovation, international networking or central importance for critical infrastructures are particularly affected.
