The Guardian

The British daily newspaper ‘The Guardian’ faced a serious ransomware cyber incident.

The company claimed that ‘there has been some disruption to behind-the-scenes services’, but the online publication is largely unaffected, as stories continue to be written and published on the Guardian’s website and app.

The incident impacted parts of the company’s IT infrastructure, prompting management to tell employees to work remotely.
