Pitney Bowes

The Shipping tech giant Pitney Bowes has confirmed in a statement that its systems were hit by a “malware attack that encrypted information” on its systems.

The company has seen no evidence that customer or employee data has been improperly accessed.

But many of its internal systems are offline, causing disruption to client services and other corporate processes.

The company said it’s working with a third-party consultant to address the issue. But it’s not immediately known what kind of ransomware encrypted its systems.
