VIENNA (Reuters) – Austrian construction company Porr detected a cyber attack on its communication infrastructure on Thursday and its telephone lines and emails were disrupted, the company said.
The disruption was caused by a virus, which has been identified, a company spokeswoman said.
Technicians were working to find a solution, but the spokeswoman said it was too early to estimate potential damage.
Company data is not at risk, Porr said in a statement.
