The European Commission and several other European Union organizations were hit by a cyberattack in March, according to a European Commission spokesperson.
As revealed by the spokesperson, the “IT security incident” impacted multiple EU institutions, bodies, or agencies’ IT infrastructure.
“We are working closely with CERT-EU, the Computer Emergency Response Team for all EU institutions, bodies and agencies and the vendor of the affected IT solution,” the spokesperson told BleepingComputer.
“The Commission has set up a 24/7 monitoring services and is actively taking mitigating measures.”
No “major information breach” was detected so far, although forensic analysis of the intrusion attempts is still in the initial phase, and no conclusive information is available.
“Let me use this occasion to recall that we take cybersecurity very seriously and apply strict policies to protect our infrastructures and devices, the spokesperson added. “We investigate every incident.”
