SembMarine hit by cybersecurity incident
SEMBCORP Marine recently uncovered a cybersecurity incident in which an unauthorised party accessed part of its IT network via third-party software products, the company said in a filing to the Singapore Exchange late on Wednesday (Aug 31).
“Certain personally identifiable information” relating to some incoming, existing and former employees, as well as non-critical information relating to its operations, were affected, SembMarine said. It has contacted the affected parties and is committed to helping them manage all possible risks and take appropriate follow-up actions, it added.
“The company took immediate action to manage and mitigate any potential risks,” the company said. “Cybersecurity experts have been appointed to conduct detailed analytics to flush out all breaches and related root causes, assist with impact assessment, and to review and enhance security measures to further strengthen the company’s core IT infrastructure and systems.”
