A cybersecurity breach affecting the British aerospace company BAE Systems has also led to issues within the U.S. bankruptcy court system.
The Bankruptcy Noticing Center, a system operated by a U.S. subsidiary of BAE Systems, was affected by the cybersecurity incident, causing websites and systems that BAE Systems operates for the judiciary to be unavailable. Some of the affected websites and services include BNC.uscourts.gov, BankruptcyNotices.uscourts.gov, Notices.uscourts.gov and the National Creditor Registration Service.
The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts said it has communicated with the courts and is coordinating with BAE Systems as the company investigates the incident and works to restore operations, according to a story by Law.com.
