U.S. oilfield services firm Halliburton last Wednesday was hit by a cyberattack, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Halliburton said it was aware of an issue affecting certain systems at the company and was working to determine the cause and impact of the problem. The company was also working with “leading external experts” to fix the issue, a spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
The attack appeared to impact business operations at the company’s north Houston campus, as well as some global connectivity networks, the person said, who declined to be identified because they were not authorized to speak on the record.
