UKG Inc. is continuing to investigate and manage outages related to a ransomware attack that forced it to shut down some of its Kronos cloud-based services that log and store employee working hours. The outages have lasted through the week and could continue into the new year, according to notices posted onCybersecurity news, analysis and insights from WSJ's global team of reporters and editors.
Kronos users span a range of industries, covering retail, government services, manufacturers, and numerous healthcare systems.
