French liner major CMA CGM has confirmed to Offshore Energy-Green Marine that it was currently dealing with a cyber-attack impacting peripheral servers.

The attack does not include CEVA Logistics.

According to a statement on Monday, the liner said“As soon as the security breach was detected, external access to applications was interrupted to prevent the malware from spreading. Our teams are fully mobilized and access to our information systems is gradually resuming.”
