May 15 (Reuters) - French electronic control equipment
manufacturer Lacroix LACR.PA reported on Monday that it had
intercepted a cyberattack overnight from Friday May 12 to
Saturday May 13 on three sites of its Electronics division in
France, Germany and Tunisia.
Measures to secure all the group's other sites were
immediately taken and investigations are underway to ensure that
the attack is completely contained, the group added.
Lacroix plans to reopen the sites on Monday May 22.
The sites affected were France's Beaupréau, German's Willich
in Germany and Tunisian's Zriba.
