CNA website back online two weeks after cyberattack

CNA Financial Corp.’s website was functioning again on Monday, about two weeks after the insurer’s systems were taken down following a ransomware attack.

In a statement, the insurer said it is “well in the restoration phase and making significant progress across our internal systems to safely return our environment to a fully operational state.”

In addition to bringing its website back online, last week CNA announced it had restored its corporate email system.

The insurer disconnected its systems from its network after it was hit by a cyberattack last month.

The ransomware attack was carried out by a hacker group known as Phoenix.

The insurer declined to comment on whether it had paid a ransom related to the attack.
