"Delivery Firm Yodel Scrambling to Restore Operations Following Cyberattack"

Delivery services provider Yodel says it is working on restoring operations after falling victim to a disruptive cyberattack.  Yodel is one of the largest couriers in the United Kingdom and was initially known as the Home Delivery Network, but it rebranded itself after acquiring the B2B and B2C operations of DHL Express UK.  On Tuesday, the company started informing customers of a cyberattack that has impacted some of its systems, but without providing specific details on the assault.  The cyberattack caused the company to experience service disruption, order tracking was unavailable, and parcels may arrive later than expected.  The company is yet to determine if any customer information might have been impacted in the attack but notes that customer payment information has not been exposed, as Yodel does not process or store such data.  Yodel encourages users to be wary of unsolicited and unexpected communications demanding personal information and to avoid clicking on links or opening attachments from suspicious sources.  On Wednesday, the company noted that it has restored tracking services and made progress in restoring operations to normal.
