Giant Group, the umbrella company that has thousands of contractors on its books, has been targeted by a “sophisticated” cyber-attack that floored systems and left workers out in the cold, the biz has now confirmed.
The attack happened last Wednesday (September 22) and forced the outfit – known to many as Giant Pay – to shut down its whole network, including its phone and email systems, as well as its IT infrastructure.
It said last night it was still working on a “technical issue that is preventing us from getting the giant umbrella and giant accounts portals back up and running.”
