LONDON, Jan 2 (Reuters) - Foreign exchange firm Travelex
said on Thursday it had taken all its systems offline after it
was hit by a software virus earlier this week.
"Our investigation to date shows no indication that any
personal or customer data has been compromised," Travelex said
in a statement.
The decision to take the systems offline was precautionary,
it said.
Computer specialists and external cyber security experts had
been working since New Year's Eve to isolate the virus, the
company said, adding its branches were continuing to provide
foreign exchange services manually.
Finablr, a United Arab Emirates-based payment
solutions business, which owns Travelex, said its six other
brands were not affected by the virus and were operating
normally.
