DXS International Shrugs Off Cyber-Attack: “Minimal Impact,” But Devman Threat Looms
DXS International, a UK tech supplier, faced a cyber-attack but assured that NHS services remain unscathed. The mischievous hacker, “Devman,” claims to have pilfered 300GB of data—enough to fill a very large digital teapot. But despite the cyber-chaos, DXS foresees no financial hiccups, proving the stiff upper lip is alive and well in cyberspace.
