The Ragnar Locker ransomware gang has claimed an attack on the flag carrier of Portugal, TAP Air Portugal, disclosed by the airline after its systems were hit on Thursday night.
The company said the attack was blocked and added that it found no evidence indicating the attackers gained access to customer information stored on impacted servers.
"TAP was the target of a cyber-attack, now blocked. Operational integrity is guaranteed," the airline operator revealed in a statement on Friday via its official Twitter account.
LastPass says hackers had internal access for four days.
"No facts have been found that allow us to conclude that there has been improper access to customer data. The website and app still have some instability."
On Monday, the airline also published an alert saying that its website and app are unable because of the Thursday cyberattack.
It also added that customers could book flights, manage previously made bookings, and check in and download their boarding passes without logging in.
Even though TAP is yet to confirm if this was a ransomware attack, the Ragnar Locker ransomware gang posted a new entry on their data leak website today, claiming to be behind last week's cyberattack that hit TAP's network.
