Cyber blow

CMA CGM Group issued a statement on 20 September, informing customers of a data leak, but said there has been no operational impact. Last September, the Group also reported an attack. The Group initially said its security was uncompromised, but later confirmed a data breach had occurred.

Regarding the latest data breach, the Group said: “We wish to inform you that a leak of data on limited customer information (first and last names, employer, position, email address and phone number) has been detected during our surveillance operations on the Group’s APIs. Our IT teams have immediately developed and installed security patches.

“There has been no operational impact on the Group’s activities.”
