Nunavut's energy corporation says cybersecurity experts are investigating after it was targeted in a cyberattack over the weekend. The Qulliq Energy Corporation says its network was breached, but it's too early to determine whether the attackers accessed customer information. It says anyone affected will be notified as the investigation continues.

»nunatsiaq.com/stories/ar ··· rattack/ -- Billing database compromised in QEC cyberattack, says VP
quote:
Bill Nippard, QEC vice-president of operations and engineering, provided some new information about the attack and subsequent investigation to Nunatsiaq News Monday. ... Investigators still have not determined whether QEC customers’ financial information has been compromised and the corporation is still urging customers to monitor their financial accounts for unusual activity and consider changing their passwords. “This all out of an abundance of caution,” said Nippard. Power plants in the territory continue to run as normal. What was attacked was the information technology side of QEC, said Nippard, such as databases for timesheets, payment processing and emails. An employee discovered the problem when they tried to send documents to a vendor. When the emails didn’t send, the system seemed to be acting strangely. That employee called the information technology help desk, who began to look into the issue. “And that’s when they shut everything down,” Nippard said.
