Virgin Media Television has been the victim of an attempted hack, the station has confirmed.
The company has been the target of a "major hack" in recent days according to Minister of State Ossian Smyth. While the station said it has "fully contained, isolated and terminated" the attempts made to disrupt its systems.
Its security team identified the attempted attack on its systems in recent days. The move to stop the attack means there will be disruption to broadcasting temporarily.
