TfL cyber attack disrupts internal networks, but transport services unaffected

Transport for London (TfL) has been struck by a cyber hacking attack that primarily affects internal systems, but not customer-facing operations, ensuring public transport remains unaffected.

TfL's Chief Technology Officer, Shashi Verma, stated, 'there remains no impact to our public transport services and no evidence that any customer data has been compromised.' This reassures customers during ongoing network issues.

As a precautionary measure, TfL has restricted access to certain customer data services, including journey histories for contactless payment systems and live travel data through their apps and website.

Shashi Verma expressed gratitude for customer patience during this time, reinforcing TfL's commitment to keep everyone informed as they manage the cyber incident and navigate network restrictions.
