The Guardian reported on Wednesday that it suffered a “significant IT incident,” which is suspected to be a ransomware attack. The publication hasn’t revealed the details of the breach, but it appears to have mainly affected internal systems not visible to readers.
The attack started late on Tuesday and was significant enough that most Guardian staff switched to working from home for the rest of the week. However, the newspaper’s website and app have continued publishing stories, and editors say this week’s print editions are still on track.
