The Hellenic Post Office faced a cyber attack on its information systems last night through malware.
“The immediate response and actions of the relevant services restrained and prevented the spread of the attack. We immediately informed and cooperated closely with all relevant state authorities as well as with IT companies specializing in cybersecurity,” the company said in a statement.
For reasons of prevention and security and until all the required actions are completed, it was decided to isolate the entire Data Center of the company. Therefore, ELTA announced the temporary suspension of the commercial information system of all post offices and there will be a new update to the public and our customers later in the day.
“The Hellenic Post apologizes for the temporary inconvenience, which is due to actions of common cybercriminals and assures that all possible efforts are being made for a speedy return to normalcy,” it said.
