Nine tapped global cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike to help it manage the fallout of last weekâs attack and to work through getting systems back online.
Sources told
The Australian Financial Review that the California-based firm CrowdStrike Incident Response (IR) Services team was quickly enlisted on March 28 after it became apparent that Nineâs systems had been hacked.
Nineâs North Sydney headquarters was the subject of a cyber attack in late March.Â

The CrowdStrike team are believed to be largely working remotely and have helped Nine cope with the ransomware attack, which has not resulted in a ransom demand. The main focus for Nine and CrowdStrikeâs IR team is restoring all of Nineâs systems and making sure the hackers have no other access points through which to return.
