Poste Italiane wishes to inform that the IT systems of its airmail unit service provider bcube were the subject of a hacking attack by unknown third parties.
Following a gradual slowdown over recent days, the IT systems have been completely down since 2.30 local time on 4 December 2024.
All bcube branches, based at Milan Malpensa and Linate and Rome Fiumicino Airports, are affected.
The Italian authorities have been notified and are investigating; bcube’s IT department is working to limit the effects of the attack on its systems as far as possible, but currently the systems are down and it is not known how long it will take to restore normal functionality.
