Several key Hurtigruten systems remain down after the cruise line was hit by an extensive cyberattack late on Sunday.
According to Hurtigruten, the attack appears to be a so-called ransomware virus, which has affected its website email communications.
The company has been cooperating with relevant Norwegian authorities and partners to obtain an overview of the situation and to limit the spread and damage of the attack.
Hurtigruten chief digital officer Ole-Marius Moe-Helgesen described the incident as “a serious attack” on the cruise line’s global IT infrastructure.
“We have implemented comprehensive measures to limit the extent of the damage from the attack,” he said in a statement.
