The Co-op was the latest victim of an attempted cyber attack, a letter to staff has revealed. The firm was forced to shut down some of its IT services just days after M&S faced a serious incident of a similar nature. Despite all of its more than 2,000 stores and funeral services running as normal, the company was forced to send a letter to all staff, seen by the Guardian, revealing more details about the incident.
According to a source, the shutdown has caused the closure of virtual desktops across the business, impacting a number of the behind-the-scenes operations that involve head office support such as updates on stock.
