Fujifilm confirms ‘no loss of data’ in cyber attack

Following an investigation into its recent cyber-attack, Fujifilm Corporation has confirmed that there was no loss of data as a result of the breach.

On 2 June, the company’s Japan office shut down all networks and servers after it became aware of an unauthorised access.

As a result of the situation, Fujifilm also suspended all affected systems in coordination with its various global entities including Australia.

This took the business offline for three days as the company’s network was partially shut down and disconnected from external correspondence.

Starting from 4 June, the network, servers, and computers were confirmed safe and got brought back into operation.

Fujifilm also said that by 14 June, operations related to customers and business partners, including customer contact, order and shipping have resumed.

“We will continue to work to solve delays in delivery occurred during this period,” the company said.

“Fujifilm Total Risk Management Committee, chaired by the president, and a special Task Force, including external experts, have carried out an investigation into the incident. According to the investigation carried out thus far, no indication of loss, destruction, alteration, unauthorised use or disclosure of our data has been detected.

“The countermeasures against this unauthorised access have already been implemented. We will continue to monitor the situation and continuously work to strengthen information security.

“We sincerely apologise to our customers and business partners for the inconvenience this has caused.”
