MSC: Terminals, cargo operations not impacted by network outage

The network outage that hit one of Mediterranean Shipping Company’s servers in Geneva last week is not affecting the company’s cargo operations, the company said on Monday.

“All MSC departments, terminals and depots are serving customers as usual and cargo is flowing without interruptions. Customers can continue place bookings and online booking platforms such as INTTRA and others remain functional,” MSC statement reads.

The Swiss-based container shipping heavyweight insists that the outage remains confined to its headquarters, impacting solely some internal data processes, msc.com and MyMSC.

When approached on Friday by our news desk, the company did not rule out the possibility of a cyber-attack.

The liner major said that significant progress has been made to solve the network outage in Geneva and MSC’s team of experts continues working on the issue.
