Microlise Group plc (AIM: SAAS), a leading provider of SaaS based transport technology solutions to fleet operators, reports an update on the cyber security incident announced on 31 October 2024.

 

The Company is pleased to say that it is making substantial progress in containing and clearing the threat from its network. The Company has been bringing services back online and currently expects this to continue over the coming days with the services essentially back to normal by the end of next week.

 

Investigations into the incident are continuing, however, the Company is confident that no customer systems data has been compromised.

Those individuals that may have been impacted will be notified in line with the Company's regulatory obligations and the relevant authorities are being made aware including the Information Commissioner's Office in the UK.

 

As matters currently stand, the Company remains of the view that this incident will not have a material adverse impact on its forecasts or financial position.

 

The Company will inform the market if there are any notifiable changes to the situation.
