"Lyca Mobile Services Significantly Disrupted by Cyberattack"

International mobile virtual network operator Lyca Mobile has recently confirmed that its services were significantly disrupted due to a cyberattack that may have also resulted in a data breach.   The company noted that the attack, which started late last week, prevented customers and retailers from accessing top-ups and also impacted national and international calling. Lyca Mobile, which claims to have more than 16 million customers, is based in the UK and operates across 60 countries. The company noted that the incident impacted services in all markets except the US, Australia, Tunisia, and Ukraine. Lyca Mobile is trying to determine whether any personal information was compromised due to the cyberattack. The company said mobile telecom services have been restored, but some operational service issues have yet to be fully resolved.
