Ransomware Attack Hits The Guardian Newspaper

One of the world’s most famous newspapers has been hit by a serious ransomware attack which forced it to send staff home, it has revealed.

The incident began late on Tuesday night local time and has affected “parts of the company’s technology infrastructure,” and “behind-the-scenes services,” according to Jim Waterson, media editor at The Guardian.

Staff have been told to work from home for the remainder of the week, although the paper’s online publishing does not appear to have been impacted.

“As everyone knows, there has been a serious incident which has affected our IT network and systems in the past 24 hours. We believe this to be a ransomware attack but are continuing to consider all possibilities,” read a missive from Guardian Media Group CEO, Anna Bateson, and editor-in-chief, Katharine Viner.

“We are continuing to publish globally to our website and apps and although some of our internal systems are affected, we are confident we will be able to publish in print tomorrow. Our technology teams have been working to deal with all aspects of this incident, with the vast majority of our staff able to work from home as we did during the pandemic.”

It’s unclear whether any sensitive data has been taken as part of the raid.
