Another day, another cyber attack; this time on ship classification society Bureau Veritas, which saw its cybersecurity system impacted. The breach was discovered on Saturday, according to Ship Technology, and has led to the company taking all its servers and data offline while it works on “protective measures”, it said.

Earlier this month a cyber intelligence company warned it was an opportune time for attacks on the supply chain sector, and that access to logistics systems were being bought and sold more often than usual.
