French liner CMA CGM S,A. said Monday that it suffered a cyberattack with
unknown hackers leaking part of its customer information.

The world's third biggest boxship operator said the "limited customer
information" leak includes their names, positions, emails and phone numbers.

"The IT team has immediately developed and installed security patches, and
surveillance of all our application programming interfaces has been
strengthened," the company said.

The hackers said in an email they obtained more than 499,000 customer
records and that they would "lay out the entire" database in a week after
CMA CGM refused to pay ransom.

The liner was hit by another cyberattack last September, which brought down
part of its IT infrastructure for an extended period.
