Around 5,000 Aer Lingus employees among those compromised by major cyber attack

Around 5,000 Aer Lingus employees have had their personal information compromised in a cyber attack.

The incident has affected a number of global companies that use the MOVEit Transfer software. It recently caused a security issue for payroll provider Zellis which informed Aer Lingus about its staff's personal information being compromised.

Aer Lingus confirmed to RTE that Zellis told them it "experienced a cybersecurity incident, which has resulted in a disclosure of some of our current and former employee data". But they also moved to share that no financial or bank details were compromised in the situation.
