BleepingComputer was informed by a source that Johnson Controls was the target of a ransomware campaign after being penetrated at its Asian headquarters.

Since then, BleepingComputer has learned that the business was the victim of a cyberattack over the weekend, which led to the shutdown of some of its IT systems.

Since that time, numerous of its affiliates, including York, Simplex, and Ruskin, have started to display technical outage alerts on website login pages and client portals.

The Simplex customer portal, among other client applications, may be restricted due to ongoing IT disruptions, according to a statement posted on the Simplex website.

As these disruptions are fixed, they will keep in touch with consumers while actively limiting any potential effects on our services.
