Copy from LSE Board "Useful chart here of listed companies by size of mcap. Currently you can see Cpi sit above the automatic qualification for the fte 250 at position 321.22 companies in the ftse have mcaps lower than Cpi.Review date im told is 31st May, so if Cpi wish to return to the Ftse they need to maintain current value."http://www.stockchallenge.co.uk/ftse.php

I'm hoping for no additional update personally:

"The issue was limited to parts of the Capita network and there is no evidence of customer, supplier or colleague data having been compromised.

We have restored Capita colleague access to Microsoft Office 365 and we are making good progress restoring remaining client services in a secure and controlled manner.

We will update the market further, should there be a need to provide any additional information, in due course."

Any further update would likely be admission that the cyber incident needs to be upgraded to a data breach, that would not be good for the shareprice.

I assume that by declaring an incident, the implication is there may be material impact, if so, surely we are due an update, although the RNS is at best woolly on this point?

I suspect even the best car manufacturer in the world has cars returned ..

[heatseek77] 04/4/2023 08:01

grip the company RNS headline cyber incident 🤦
The only ref I have made to it as a 'incident' was in relation to itil were it would be classed as a major incident

Things fail from time to time ..
Capita have stated as per RNS cyber incident

[gripfit] 04/4/2023 07:15

Was it a cyber incident ( malicious) or as u say ,,, an incident …
Things fail from time to time ..

[heatseek77] 04/4/2023 07:09

grip I'd flipping hope so, but how many other msp do you hear who are taken out for days due to cyber incidents? I can only think of Fujitsu (£4.4m fine if remember correctly?)

So imho I don't think they've enhanced reputation... mho below

Of course it's not a non issue 🤦 Capita is an MSP so if they can't protect own network what do you think current and possible future customers will think?

[heatseek77] 04/4/2023 07:00

grip, investor relations very selective in words used imho - which would be, as it's job to be

[gripfit] 04/4/2023 06:57

They will be making sure is protected now , that’s a certainty

[gripfit] 04/4/2023 06:56

Do you think capita are lying or something ?? Or the PR dept playing it down?

[heatseek77] 04/4/2023 06:34

grip totally disagree I managed (as a third party) the national lottery network amongst others if it went down the costs were astronomical..

Of course it's not a non issue 🤦 Capita is an MSP so if they can't protect own network what do you think current and possible future customers will think?

[gripfit] 04/4/2023 06:23

Looks like THE TIMES are milking this one … clearly they want to stick the boot in ..It’s the only paper that seems to be running anything on this NON issue

[heatseek77] 04/4/2023 06:17

Imho Capita may have some £ to pay out due to last week's 'cyber attack' it's usually built in contracts

Look to the future guys…. This is going to be a cash cow soon ,, very soon ,, and dividends being re instated ,,, it’s a no brainer

[dylanl2] 03/4/2023 07:07

Agreed, shouldn't happen...for me it depends exactly what happened and what was compromised but they have been confident enough to open up so hoping it's at the lesser end of the spectrum

[heatseek77] 03/4/2023 06:49

Certainly classify it as a major incident under ITIL 😂🤣

[heatseek77] 03/4/2023 06:48

🤷 not sure where we will end up today? Tbh I've consulted to HP, Sopra, Sungard, Siemens, Capita, IBM, Microsoft - all I would say imho for a tech company this shouldn't really happen..

Capita plc - Update on cyber incident

On Friday 31st March, Capita plc ("Capita") experienced a cyber incident
primarily impacting access to internal Microsoft Office 365 applications. This
caused disruption to some services provided to individual clients, though the
majority of our client services remained in operation.

Our IT security monitoring capabilities swiftly alerted us to the incident, and
we quickly invoked our established and practised technical crisis management
protocols. Immediate steps were taken to successfully isolate and contain the
issue. The issue was limited to parts of the Capita network and there is no
evidence of customer, supplier or colleague data having been compromised.

Working in collaboration with our specialist technical partners, we have
restored Capita colleague access to Microsoft Office 365 and we are making good
progress restoring remaining client services in a secure and controlled manner.

We will update the market further, should there be a need to provide any
additional information, in due course

Phew ….. all is ok ..:

Maybe it part of a new Govt. scheme to reduce the cost of the NHS !

...if they can't use their PCs then they can't any money ! (Or very difficult)
