Four major banks in Iran had their services disrupted Sunday following a cyberattack, though officials say no customer information was put at risk, according to reports from state media.
Iran’s banking coordination council confirmed the attack hit a shared communications network connecting Bank Melli, Bank Tejarat, Bank Saderat, and the Export Development Bank of Iran. In response, technical teams moved quickly to put protective measures in place, which temporarily affected some banking services.
The council stressed that no customer data had been accessed without authorization and that nothing had been deleted. Officials added that recovery efforts are currently underway to bring services back to normal.
