Ventia has revealed that it has taken certain “key systems” offline in response to a cybersecurity incident. The incident was disclosed by the company on Saturday, and Ventia has since taken decisive action to contain it. The primary focus is on restoring networks while prioritizing the security and safety of personnel, customers, and stakeholders.
In an update provided on Sunday, Ventia stated that the incident response is ongoing, but the company is still able to maintain some level of operation. Vigilance is being maintained across systems, and further protective measures will be implemented if necessary as operations gradually return to normal in the coming days.
Ventia has engaged external cybersecurity experts and is actively collaborating with regulators and law enforcement agencies. The company expressed apologies for the incident and pledged to provide additional updates in the days ahead.
iTnews reached out to a Ventia spokesperson for further comment, but no response was provided at the time of reporting.
